I love the fall skies; the bright blue and the soft clouds. I still try to make figures out of the clouds.

Happy birthday to all who celebrated their day this past week.

Special wishes to my sister in law Linda Noble who celebrated Sept. 16, and great-niece Amanda Brown who celebrate Sept. 17.

Big balloons go out to Diana DeOliveira who celebrated her day Sept. 15, Megan Donovan, Sept. 17, and Curtis Farrell and Renato Gomes who both celebrated Sept. 18.

Wow, it is always exciting to break a record and Dianne Powers did so recently. Dianne and I were both at Davis Solon and Gina Lombardi’s wedding reception when Dianne whipped out a photograph of a bird. Dianne continued by saying she thought the bird was a worm-eating warbler, was she right? Right as rain, said I, and what a find!
