R I P
? - September 15, 2009


You know it will happen someday.
Doesn't mean you'll be ready for it.
Dogs are fairly short-lived creatures
but live longer than others.
Lizzie reached the end of her fight today.
She will be missed.

I found this online and it seemed very appropriate.
It is not used by permission, but I think the author would understand:

My Little Friend

I have a little friend whose always by my side,
We're never very far apart no matter what the time.
I have a little friend who listens to what I say and doesn't judge
me for what I've done but what's inside of me.
She gives me the support I need to make it through the day.
And when I'm sad she seems to know just what I need to have.
My little friend is not like me she has some things I don't,
like four legs, a tail that wags and a nose that's wet and cold.
She lets me know with a gentle nudge that she cares
and is there for me.
We'll never be that far apart,
and when the time does come,
I know we'll be together again in that spot above.

I'm doing pretty good for July 15th ...

I'm doing pretty good for July 15th ...
What do you mean it's Labor Day?


We are at a stopping point on the window painting / repair / replacement on the house. (Sorry, no photos) It started out as a couple day job painting window trim. We've spent close to 3 weeks on it. We have replaced 4 windows and have pretty much decided over the next year or so to replace almost all of them.

Moving along ...

Outside of a kid calling her Grandma, Sue can't think of a much higher honor than a little kid pulling on his Mom's hand and pointing and saying "That's my Sunday School teacher". Here are a couple of her students and a couch full of mine


Someone asked how the restaurant was doing, so here are a few candid shots


It's hard to get a waitress to stand still long enough for a photo


And it is so famous people travel all the way from Idaho to eat there



Well, enough for now. Be sure and visit the farm site at www.bumpusfarms.us
