San Juan Island Pictures


The second week of July my sister Bev and her husband Ron came to visit and we took the ferry to the San Juan Islands. The ferry ride was just as beautiful as the islands.

Bev and Ron look as if they are on a cruise ship. I had loaned Beverley my fleece shawl coat which kept her toasty warm except for the wind gusts which kept blowing the coat open!

Knock, Knock, Surprise!








Last week I was fretting over medical news that was not too wonderful. The doorbell rang and it was the sister that Frank home teaches. She works at a flower shop and had a lovely arrangement which I thought she had made for me. It was for me alright but it was not from her. When she found out it was being delivered to me she put some extra special flowers in addition to what was ordered.
When I excitedly opened the enclosed card it was from Michelle and Dave and it made my day and my week and my month. It was so caring that they took the time to think of me. THANKS YOU TWO and I love you too!
Til later.

Lunch with my Grandson


Last week before school started I went to
Eric and Heathers'. The only one that was home was Terrin, my 9 year old grandson. The visiting teacher had taken Colin, Owen and Addie to her house for the day and Heather was asleep. I watched Terrin play video games for awhile and then asked him if he would go with me to Rite Aid because I needed to pick up a few things. He was excited to go somewhere so off we went. It is so nice to have grandkids one on one. You talk about the most inane and interesting things. When we left the store we went to Pennys and just window shopped. The Pennys in Snohomish has been there 30 years and I had never been there. Now I know why. The store is extremely, smmmmaaaaalll. Then I asked him if he had eaten lunch so I took him to lunch. He felt pretty darn special and enjoyed bragging rights of the smoothie he carried home to finish!
