Ted Kennedy Laid to Rest



Its hard to lose someone you love. Feel for the family. Church service very nice. Lots of family members participating in the service. Beautiful rendition of Ave Maria. Grandchildren and nieces and nephews each read a line in the responsorial prayer using lines from Senator Kennedy's speaches. Very touching. A fitting send off.

It's a tough life for a Cat





My Miss Kitty is an escape artist - she can not be contained in my cat "San Quenton" so still gets out in the world at large. She got into a fight with something Tuesday night and came home with a big gash through the skin that exposed the musles. She is lucky - my vet was able to sew her up. My niece Ashley's kitty was not so lucky this week - the vet could not do anything to help her after her fight and kitty had to be put down. So sorry Ashley, it is very hard to loose a pet.

Peaches, flowers and the beach


Helped our friend Michael (Trout Lily Farm) pick his peaches. Lots of peaches and beautiful flowers. Later today it's off to Hammonasset State Park to join my cousins Kathy and Rosanne and two of Rose's grandchildren at the beach and campsite for supper - I am cooking hot dogs for supper. Looking forward to my own peach shortcake this week from the fresh peaches ! Yummy .......
