Tree Down




For several months, everyone has been nervously watching this tall evergreen as it leaned toward the street. Every one agreed that "someone"--preferably the home owner--should "do something" about it. However, the owner's car hasn't been seen in the driveway since maybe last fall. This person is reclusive and apparently told no one where he was going and when he would be back.  Today the inevitable happened. Fortunately, no one was hurt and nothing was damaged.

Magic Moment



This is our granddaughter. She will be two years old in May. We spent the day with her a week ago, so that her mother could get some work done. Like all little kids her age, she enjoys feeding others. She wants to share pieces of waffle or cracker with her grandfather and me. She tosses food to her dog attendants from her highchair-throne like a tiny queen.

That afternoon, when we were playing toddler games with her in the living room, she fed us again. Only this time, the food was imaginary! We were pretty impressed with that, let me tell you.
