Splashing Fun

These past couple of days have been scorchingly hot! Thank goodness we have a swimming pool. What could have been painfully unbearable heat turned out to be playful fun. At my nephew's birthday party guest had the option to be refreshed by the yummy water.

Boat Cruising on Lake Michigan

I wish I had a boat, actually I would love to own and know how drive a speed boat or a sail boat. I went sailing a couple of times with people that knew what they were doing. I haven't been on a non tourist boat in a while, maybe someday I'll purchase my own.

Showing Off Some Pictures

Thanks to Sorisa's comments in yesterday's posting I checked into a local news station website and saw my pictures posted. I loved that my picture was the first one in the slideshow. Hopefully it will last a while. Check it out before someone else claims that top spot...

Check out the slide show below, my picture is the one displayed here.
