Baby Robin in our White Pine



It's the last one to leave the nest - there were three huddled there yesterday.

A few minutes later I checked the nest and now it's empty. I don't know if they come back for a spell or not. I'll watch.

Memorial Day



Here's the new flag John Carragher sent for my birthday. It flew over Craig Joint Theater Hospital, Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan, on my birthday last year. It just fits in our space. Thanks again, John!

When we ever get trains back in Columbus I hope the station is like this!

Some Spring Pictures

Yesterday we had a new tree installed at the side of the house - the old one had died for some unknown reason.

We also put in some new shrubs and I transplanted some grasses.

Spring Road

Here's a spring scene.
This is a hand colored etching by Susan Hunt-Wulkowicz
that we have enjoyed for many years.

Have you called your Kindergarten teacher recently?

This morning I woke up and realized I hadn't contacted Mrs. Cady in a while, so I called her today. I found out that on March 13 (Friday the 13th!) she and her husband were on their way out to eat to celebrate her 83rd birthday when someone ran a stop sign and they were involved in a very bad accident. Their car was totaled but they suffered no serious injuries but some pretty bad bruises. Here is my kindergarten class in front of Fair Avenue school in the spring of 1950.

Sharing...

This morning I thought I would share a little painting that we have had for a long time. It is small - approximately four and three-eighths by two and seven eighths inches. There is no signature only a label on the back of the frame with the initials A.S.B. (To see it MUCH larger than life just click on the image.)
