Good 40º foggy morning. Yesterday we were supposed to get
rain.... stayed like this... and there was rain coming down on my
mountain...
I never saw it rain but noticed the leaves on the grass were wet...
I guess we got 12 or 6 drops!
Today is a SPECIAL birthday, my "Italian son" and Brian's best
friend, Alex, is celebrating! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETHEART!!! I love you! I hope
you have a GREAT day!

ANNIVERSARY KIDS!!!!
When PJ found the big black lab on the freeway off-ramp. I met her and
brought him home. I called all the vets and animal shelters, to no avail. So
Tammy said one of their dogs had passed away and they would love to have him.
So.... met them half way between here and Modesto and they took Mr. Big Stuff
home... Gary renamed him Sideways, as he tends to sit sideways!! Here are their
two labs, Jaco and Sideways..

Good morning. Thank you for a nice morning read. What a lovely time to be alive- when so much fresh tortellini can simply picked up at the grocery store.
Thanks L! Glad the fresh, dried, and frozen tortellini is available.... a WHOLE LOT OF WORK to make it by hand!!!! xo
What handsome boys were Brian and Alex. Brian had quite the bod even way back then. :) Happy Birthday handsome Alex!
Our black Lab mix, Velvet sat sideways too. I guess it's a thing with them. :)
Loved Tennessee Ernie Ford. Friends of mine and Edda's live in his former house in Friendly Hills, Whittier. Been there for parties.
XO Trisha
Yes, they were handsome, and still are!!! Interesting about the sideways sitting dogs. My Yukon had a back leg missing so he sat funny anyway. Tennessee Ford lived in Whittier, eh? Cool. Thanks T. xo
Thank you so much for the shout out and for our beautiful,sweet, black lab. Yesterday I was pulling weeds and I had a black nose and a brown nose in my face, giving me kisses while I worked. They bring us so much joy. Love- Gary and Tammy, Jaco and Sideways (who we call Sidesy Sioux) after his second Mama.
Such a good feeling that such great people have Sideways and he he gives and gets so much joy!!! xoxox
