Welcome! Forever Home Arrival


Good morning!  Meet our new little friend, Mister SnowBug Da'Bean.  He is fitting into the household very well.  After a week, Toez the Polydactyl Cat finally seems to be used to having a tiny bit of fluff flying  around the house.  She is so intrigued.

This morning I awoke around three, until finally falling back to sleep about an hour later. Around five a.m. I was lulled awake by the oddest sensation. I laid there a few minutes before I realized SnowBug Da'Bean was cuddled next to my face with his tiny nose pressed into my ear, purring like a wee bumble bee. Talk about a surprise wake up!

On that note, good morning all you wonderful people!

Visiting Daddy


Above are Mumsie and my two lovely younger sisters standing next to where Dad is interred.  Aren't they beautiful? Every Memorial Day weekend our family makes the trip to Willamette National Cemetery to pay our respects to Dad.  We've been doing so for six years now.  We all miss him so much.


This is the spectacular view from "Dad's Place."  Row upon row of his fellow soldiers, our heroes, can be seen with brave flags fluttering over where they rest.  So sad--so beautiful.


This dear woman was sweet to my heart as she carefully decorated her loved one's resting place.  I found her to be exquisitely lovely.

God bless them, every one.
