This picture was taken way back on July 1st, but is here for this week because Charlie, Justine and I got to talk this week; only in a slightly different venue, it was through Readeo. Cool website where you can read books to your grandchildren (or anyone you'd like) and you and they can see each other (like Skype) while both parties are looking at and reading the book. Neat and it was fun.

Started gathering wood for the winter...Phil (soon to be a step-son in law) and I cut down some trees off his property. I spent some time today splitting them and stacking.

This picture was so much fun for me. Do you see how effectively I teased my daughter? Yet I still got to give her a kiss, anyway. We all were having fun taking this photograph of 4 generations!My Dad, me, my daughter Erin and her children Charlie and Justine. Chris (my son in law and Erin's husband) was already back in Portland.


If anyone out there in the Buffalo area has a really good job for a really good Doctor of Internal Medicine would you let my son-in law know so he can apply and move his family out of that rainy old Portland OR back here to Buffalo, NY so his children can be closer to their grand parents?
