It is sunny and beautiful up here!

Today I was enjoying the beautiful flowers and landscape. Doug and Betty took me for a regular checkup (I am doing quite well) and a drive. The sun was out and everything was green and replete with flowers.

The photo is of a picture I painted, free-hand! Who knew I could do this before now! Certainly not me, but I am told that my residence likes my work and even puts some of it on their walls for people to enjoy.

I am told two very exciting bits of news - Carol & Ken are coming for a visit in a few weeks and I am to be a great-grandmother again but this time to a little girl - Avery Bell for my maiden name. Lots to look forward to! And I hope all of you will consider a visit up here - our summer is just beginning and we would love to share it with you!

Memorial Day was a good day! I spent it pretty much inside my residence as it was a bit wet outside as well as damp and cold. But I celebrated the day with Betty & Doug and was able to talk with Randy! My residence decorated for the day as well as celebrated it with red, white and blue flowers. Everyone wore colors that were compatible with the flag. Even the cookies for us to eat had little flags on them!
