We had a fun day. Lots going on and enjoying it all. Noelle,  Rebekah and Nick were here and Rebekah's husband Zach. It was great fun!

I colorized this b/w photo. I feel like it shows their facial expressions so beautifully. My dad was the best and although I miss him, I am grateful they are not here to witness what is coming next in this world. 

Happy Heavenly Birthday Dad . 

"The purpose of our lives is to be happy. "The Dalai Lama

Having been raised by happy people in a happy neighborhood, my childhood was like a dream. 


Oh Maxine! You don't look very happy!


Covering Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. I lost my post late Sunday night here so had to recreate it and yesterday was a wild ride of a day. 

To see the Summer Sky
Is Poetry, though never in a Book it lie –
True Poems flee –
~Emily Dickinson, c. 1879


Ah, summer, what power you have to make us suffer and like it. ~Russell Baker, as quoted in Think (IBM), 1970


A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken. ~James Dent, in The Charleston Gazette, as quoted in The Reader's Digest, 1994

Some poetry and Sparks quotes for Summertime.
