A quicky update

So the summer seems to be suffering a temporary set-back, as the rain is back and the warm weather is on hold. Speaking of the weather (almost always a safe subject,) Eileen (Mamma) and I are well, but some next of kin have been rather UNDER the weather with a mean flu bug. All are well again or at least much improved.

Thanks to those of you who keep your blog much more up to date so we get to read the news while it's still news.

Earlier this summer we decided to add a bit of colour to our front yard. The yellow roses are slow, but beautiful once they're out.



Eileen has been very successful in her flower garden on our back balcony - I guess they call it the back deck.
