Outings in May

I just signed in on my blog for the first time in a couple months and found that I had some blog postings that were nearly finished saved in drafts...yep, I'm still alive. Lots more to blog now. You can see pics from Bonners Ferry and Parma conventions in my picasa albums. The link is on this page somewhere to the upper left.

One of our friends, Kathleen, works as a teacher at Nestucca High School in Cloverdale, teaching band, choir and english, and she directed the musical, Sugar, this spring. Several of us went to see it together. You can see us above with some of the stage stuff in the background. It was really fun, the kids did a great job. Unfortunately, Kathleen couldn't be there that night. She was terribly sick, and this was in the height of the swine flu scare. Her superintendent asked her to stay home until she was tested for the flu...that was really the pits. She didn't have the flu.

We had a ladies outing to Shore Acres, near Charleston. It was a long drive, and a really wet, stormy day...but we had a GREAT time! Our planned picnic became an indoor picnic at the King's home in Florence, and then a few ladies joined us there to continue our trek south to Shore Acres.
Can you tell how windy it is as Warna holds the gate to keep it from slamming in our face! : )
Sisters Janice and Celia posed for me with great delight...I love how you can see that the stormy weather didn't dampen our spirits.



Peggy and I met Ken for coffee one day this spring. Right now we are having a few meetings at his Fallon Logging office, sent invites to all of his employees, and one family has come.
This cat has a thing for shoes. It just made my day to have this cat cuddle with my foot. : ) We see her when we visit Rollin Browning.
