We celebrated the 4th of July with friends last night. These lucky folks own a house near the park with a perfect view of the fireworks display. People began showing up around 7 for grilled hamburgers and all sorts of delicious side dishes. It was an unusually nice evening for July. The humidity was relatively…
Land of the free
This is one of the things which has made America great: Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door! Happy Independence Day!
Yo ho ho!
That lavender bandana he’s been wearing was just a wee bit girly but thanks to Tori at Torizworld, Shiloh now sports this awesome new one. Her dog, Kero, got one for his birthday recently and when I asked where she bought it she kindly offered to send one to Shiloh. Wasn’t that sweet? Now I will…
Movie Night at the Park

Menu…Tuesday ~ June 19, 2012

In the good ol’ summertime…
I took this shot as I was driving in our driveway the other day. I want to make sure I have photos of the “in between” stage of our exterior renovations. I love the way the log siding looks with the stone and am eager to see it finished. The white railing on the balcony…
