Rolling in the clover
Well, I'm not actually rolling in the stuff. Too wet. And besides, why would I want to get down on the ground and roll in clover? I probably should think about spraying the stuff, though. I've sat here all week watching it grow as the rains continue. My flowers like it, though.
A few months ago I bought this dial phone in an antique store. Wanted a black one but when I went back the next day to buy it, it was gone. So I took this yellow one--- just because.
Anyhow, Maddie was in here yesterday and asked me how the phone worked. I thought that was funny but then she's never known dial phones. Once I explained the process, she says: "Oh, that's kind of cool. I wish they'd bring those back again. It's fun." (yeah, but it would get old quick!)
Finished scanning John's old family pictures. Here are two I liked......
John's mom standing by their pick up with all her kids.
John home on leave in Colton, CA. I don't think we had met yet (or we had JUST met)
Mary and Andy head home tomorrow. Saw Germany, Austria, Switzerland I think. Took lots of photos, of course. Here's two she sent me as she knew I would get a kick out of them. (McDonalds in Germany)
Would you believe....they told her no pictures please. She must have been in E. Germany.
Well, I guess we're about done with the rain for a while and hot temperatures are on the way. Can't say that I'm thrilled either. Sunny weather--fine. Hot temps making life miserable--not so fine. I know. There's just no pleasing me sometimes.
