The Two Best Books

Cat

The other day I was on You Tube, which I hardly ever do... and I saw a video called "Stroking a Cat"...... It made me want to run and find Gig and stroke him till he his purr box broke. It was the most relaxing video...just to watch the joy and pure pleasure the cat was experiencing. Puts. You. To. Sleeeeep zzzzzzz.

The Pink Pictures

I had a great time visiting Jacksonville, Florida...while Melissa, Steve and family are there for a 5 week internship......Macy dancing in her princess dress we bought her for her birthday.

Against the yellow wall.

She even sleeps in her princess dress.

I'm ready to read to them...my favorite thing to do every night.

Cash, 18 mo. old.

We made my mother's recipe and family favorite, Beerrocks.....this is before they were baked. It's cabbage & onions sauteed in butter, with finely chopped roastbeef...baked in a sweet roll dough.

Pull up the corners, seal them and turn them over.

This is their condo complex for 5 weeks... a beautiful area with pools and ponds and ducks and a clubhouse...

Steve has been sent here by the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota ...it's their new clinic in Jacksonville, he's getting specialized training in pain treatment.
He rides his bike here each day 6 miles.

Melissa's toes, sand, and shells.

At the beach

These shells became the VERY special necklace Kami made for me.

Soooooooo Funnnnnnn

Gig

Our cat Gig would never run away to join the circus.. He couldn't been trained to do anything.... He's very entertaining all on his own..... though I'd like to shoot him out of a cannon somedays.

Circus Pics

This is Leah Christiana (My friend Mollie White's daughter). She is very high up at this point... My pictures were taken from very far away, so the 'steady' factor wasn't the greatest.

The Ringmaster

Alex Ramon was the star of the show...Great entertainer, and only 25 years old!


Here he pulled some kids out of the audience.. (The stadium was packed.)

Circus Photos

This is Alex Ramon...world famous magician and ringmaster of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus... he is the son of my high school girlfriend, Mollie White. Her daughter Leah is in the show also, a lovely trapeze artist... They were on The View recently, where Alex and Leah levitated Whoopie Goldberg...... Gary, Christian, and I went to see the "Greatest Show on Earth" Zing Zang Zoom last night. It was so wonderful. Mollie arranged for her son, STAR of the show (if you don't count the lions, elephants, etc.) to meet us afterward. He was darling and gracious... I took pictures. He (and Leah) look just like Mollie..... I gave him some pictures of his mother & his sweet grandfather ---our Red Bluff High School counselor, Mr. White. It was so nice to meet Mollie's son.
