7/29/08 A walk in the park

enny and Elphius (Elf) wanted to go for a walk in the dog walking park in Farmington. (I think that's it's unofficial name, it's just the big field behind the movie theatre where everyone goes to the trail around the field to walk their dogs). So their owner called (MRM) and asked if I wanted to go. This is the beauty of a summer day in Maine at sunset that is literally outside my door.

This is the Sandy River . . . the same one I look at from my verandah when looking across the field, in fact, this is that same field.

Queen Anne's Lace:

The flowers are closing up as they do every night. This one is still open and you can see the purple center that they all have.

This is the opposite of most verandah pictures . . . in this one I'm in the field looking up at the verandah instead of the other way around!

My house is the one in the middle:

7/29/08 Remembering Rosemary

Rosemary and her twin brother Walter were born on Easter morning, 2002. Early this morning, she died. No one really knows how or why. She was sick, her mom took her to the hospital, and she died. Her dad is in the wilderness of Canada and he doesn't know yet. Her 6-year-old twin brother can't understand why she's not with him as she has been his entire life. Please say a prayer for sweet Rosemary, her family, and our choir family. We will miss you, Rosemary!



This photo of Rosemary is from March 4, 2006, when our choir was on one of our amazing campouts at Beaver's Bend. She and I were counting pretzels.
