Good 56º clean sunny morning. Hit 102º yesterday and the
smoke had come in and filled the valley again in Grants Pass... from the
Glendale fire complex, north of us..
My Dad, Leslie Laney, died this date in 1991. Miss you Daddy!!! He

Yesterday afternoon I picked up my friend Jennifer Murphy from The Kitchen
Company,
where she works, and we headed out to
Applegate Valley Ranch for the last BBQ of the season. Joining us were Bill
Jeannie Patterson, Dale Dee Yellin, Tom Kathy Corso, Paul Tammy Allgood, Brian
Jen Tucker Sami Pendleton, Jean Schumacher, and neighbors of Dale Dee, Michael
& Edith. Barbecued chicken and beef, watermelon salad, beans, garlic bread,
chocolate cake! YUMMMM! Photos on the Smilebox...
and, apparently my Sami likes frogs as much as I do. Everytime we've been at Applegate Ranch, she catches one!

Friday the 13th. Yikes. So far I almost knocked over a lamp, Chaka hit me in the face, thought my nose was going to swell, so why not take a chance and work with equipment outside. Keep your fingers crossed for safety.
Fun night last night with great people! Glad to see you finally were in the picture taking action. Thanks for the lovely one of me with my mouth wide open. lol
Bill did look like he had the entire "cow" on his plate. Too funny.
I am drooling over those peanuts. You know, you, nor Bill, smoked any this year. sigh It's okay, there's still time. giggle.
Have a wonderful day, and thanks for the great blog as usual. chat later.

PLEASE be careful today!!! Bruiser almost tripped me this morning. So far so good. Yes, last night was fun. Wish there were more barbecues there .... always sad at the end of the season. OK, will have to smoke some peanuts! Forgot about that. I LOVED the picture of you and Mr. Frog. I'm still giggling! xoxoxoxo
Love your Smile Boxes! Makes us feel like we are there too. Dinner looked yummy! I noticed you didn't have the chicken. The beef looked excellent!
Hey, you just KNOW that Sami would love those frog cookies that I sent you the recipe to make.
You look so like your dad when he was in his Navy uniform. You and Brian both have his eyes.
My daddy passed away also in 1991, on Feb 1.
Have a safe Friday the 13th! Stay cool!
XO Trisha
