They are a bit out of order, sorry.

Jo and I moved a few 'chairs' around

We took the 'dolly' to the lake and moved a couple to near the beach and a couple to the deck. Jo is nice and strong!
The chicks are getting big, This is an Americana, green eggs! There are 3 Americana's and 3 Buff Orpington's.

Service for Tobi

It will be August 5 at 7 p.m. at the high school stadium. The program is a JV/Varsity/Alumni pick-up soccer game and singing, followed by cookies. It seems just right.

Gus at the lake

The first time we took him to the lake, I dropped the (beloved) ball on the beach and he would not go down the steps to get it. This was this morning. He had a hard day of ball playing yesterday at the Isons. He is really tired today.

We had a lovely time in Cape Ann. Great restaurant, Alchemy.

It was nice to see the Menons. Ajay is in this picture.
