. . . that summer is now arriving in the fall!

Well, it is 3:50 and I haven't got called up yet, so I figure I'm safe. Only one jury panel was called up today. One panel was called for next week and they warned it could last 20-30 days. Computer kicked me out because I'm only paid for one week, or 3 days.
I did have time to finally get my photo book done for the Shasta reunion. Sure did pass the time quick! Not bad!

This is what I'll be doing. My civic duty. So as not to be fined, incarcerated, or both. Now, ordinarily I don't think of myself as a strongly opinionated person, but wish me luck calling up my mojo on Monday if I find myself in the jury box. That strong opinionated comment will guarantee me a "thank you, you're excused" comment we all wish for!

This last spring, out of the blue, I received a very thoughtful gift certificate from Dorothy. She suggested a few things I might enjoy with it. I took her suggestion and got these pots for my front door. They are doing quite well, even though they took a beating in the heat while I was away at the Shasta reunion. However, now they are recovered and I wanted to show how beautiful they are greeting me every time I come and go. Even though we are thousands of miles apart, I take a happy thought of Dorothy with me each time I leave and bring a happy thought in with me every time I come home. Thank you Dorothy, for helping me keep you close when I miss you most.

We took the ladies for a ride to San Clemente. Pat suggested a stop at In and Out. Aunt Dorothy said "I don't like Burgers!!" Mom agreed. Pat convinced them they would like it. After a couple bites, Aunt Dorothy said "This is the best burger in the world!!"

I told Taylor he might want to take advantage of all the back to school and Labor Day sales going on in the stores and pick up some shoes before the rains come (his soles are less than watertight). Little did I know, that this guy can shop!
