It is very green and mostly cool to warm at the lake. We have enjoyed seeing wild turkeys with their chicks almost daily. There is an occasional doe and fawn, and we have also seen a sand hill crane with chicks in our yard. I still enjoy working in the yard, and I am a whirlwind of trimming now.
Hope everyone had a great holiday. We had outings with our sibs over the 4th weekend, and then our kids and grandkids came in the next week. (Andy, Lisa, Abby, and Lily were here in June before returning to Germany.) Now we're on our own again. I will post some pictures later...on the IPad now. Our calendar is much less cluttered now. I so enjoyed having all of the grandchildren here at the lake this summer.
Ron is enjoying watching the British Open at the Old Course. It brings back memories of his two trips to Scotland with golfing/Army buddies and of course, the 5 times that he played the Old Course.
Love to all. Hope you still have many summer plans ahead of you!
Love, Ron & Jan
This is such a great photo Jan! It was so good to see you the other day, your after photo would be wonderful as well! Bob remembers Ron telling him about playing the Old Course - what great memories he must have about that! Very happy to hear Ron is doing better now, what a relief that must be. The British Open has been fun to watch this year, glad Ron is enjoying it - is he rooting for anyone in particular? Hope you both enjoy the rest of the summer and beyond with continued good news. Take care.

This photo is so cute of you two. So glad you got a chance to spend time with all the kids & grandkids & glad you are getting in some gardening time. It will help you relax & is one of your passions. Always thinking of & praying for you both. Love & hugs, Ann & Bob
ReplyDeleteWe watched the last round of the British Open during Ron's immunity infusion Monday. We both were rooting for Spieth just for the historical element that had the possibility of becoming reality. He made it entertaining and is so good for golf. But we also like Zach Johnson so were rooting for him in the play off. His emotional response after playing 8 years before winning his second major was special. The Open made great TV viewing!
ReplyDeleteAs for the picture, I expect great changes in close to 50 years, but last week we were looking at pictures from Hawaii in 1999, and that was almost shocking to see how we have changed!
