More pictures from last week.  Everyone had a lot of fun.
For Terry and I it is 5 days to close up the house and pack.  As we put things that are to go North in the spare bedroom it fills up and up and maybe the car will be too small!  We did many "run around" things yesterday so are kind of finished with that part.  Now it is make a list, make another list, make some more lists and then check off and check off until all is done.  There is also the case of will we run out of food before we leave or will we leave before we run out of food?  Of course we want to leave the fridge empty but we also don't want to go hungry the last day!!   So far it looks like it may be close either way.  I know one thing for sure, I can always take that dark beer with me as well as the dark roast coffee! 
Terry continues to take good care of my elbow.  Last night she said at 9:15 that we had not done the massage, tens thing and ice yet on my elbow.  I wanted to just forget it but NO she said it had to be done so there I was at about 10:00 watching "Little house on the prairie" and "Twins vs New York" with an ice pack on my elbow.  I would say my elbow is a tiny bit tender but for the most part it is good for the first time in over a year.  Sad to say but it may feel good enough to do some work on Niles Ave:( not really :) .
Here I sit, looking through the patio doors over the pool, through the small preserve at the pond beyond.  The bright sunlight shines on all and as always, God's artistic talent is beyond all.
No more words, no more french press.
