We especially enjoyed their picking and singing. They have […]

Thursday, October 3 I tried to stretch my strength by walking to the mailbox to mail a birthday card. Jana was our first visitor – along with our favorite donuts. Cerwin had creme-filled, mine was glazed and Jana had the chocolate covered one. We had a great time visiting for a few hours and catching […]
Wednesday, October 2 One of the benefits of getting sick is getting calls, messages and visitors. Jared and Yeira called earlier in the week, asking if they could visit and bring ice cream from Fox Meadows. Of course I said, yes.

Cerwin still had these two pictures in his cell phone from Dysart’s from […]

~~~ Monday, September 16 ~~~ West Quoddy Head, Lubec, Maine, is the easternmost point in the contiguous USA. I googled “Who first saw the sunrise on September 16, 2024.” This was my answer. The first place in the USA to see the sunrise would be in the easternmost parts of Maine, particularly around the town […]
~~~ Sunday, September 15 ~~~ Most of the TFC staff left on Saturday after the banquet or Sunday morning early because they had flights to catch early Sunday morning. We were the only ones in our cabin. We went to the main cabin to enjoy coffee and breakfast with the few that were still there. […]
