It feels good...............

to begin communicating again - and it is a good way for all of us to share what is going on in our lives when we find a little time to do so. I was so glad to see your post Diane.

I am wondering how you are doing with your back Lizzie. What was it like by the time you got to Dan's daughter's house. Troy called last night and I told him I gave you his phone numbers on the slight chance you might get to connect. He said he hoped it worked out. How is that new baby? I bet you are taking tons of pictures.

The slip and slide in conjunction with a water fight must have been a sight to see. I didn't look on Flickr for that adventure. It would have been a good photo op.

Lizzie sent me "the shoe" with a note to take it to the beach. Darn, I missed an opportunity for a photo on Sunday when Earl and I went down that way. We could have photos of the shoe in all seasons.

The Prairie Oaks Metro Park sounds like a nature adventure. Where is that?

Sunday Earl and I went on a long ride "down east" as the folks around here refer to Harker's Island. It had been so long since the two of us got in the car and went Sunday sightseeing and then had dinner. Almost felt like a date.

Any coughing, sneezing, sore throats and tiredness with any of you? The media seems to have stirred up a lot of scary scenarios with the Swine Flu. I did get some germ fighting lotion for my hands though.

I bowled in the Senior Olympics yesterday and got 3 gold medals. No accolades are needed because except for one of the events I was the only person in my age group so I automatically got the medal. The State finals will be in Raleigh sometime this September I think.

I will go now to join Earl for the last half the O'Reilly Factor which I think is a piece of "scat". Got to spend some more time with Earl to keep those fires burning. LOL
