Life on F Street winds down

Alissa and Marley, my grand kitty, prepare to move out of the F Street apartment. Marley is a very advanced kitty. I am sure he will be in the gifted program when he begins formal education.
They will both miss their life on F Street.

Mocha Time


A delicious cup of mocha and some time to repose.

Writing cards


Alissa and I meet often and write and send cards to people. Blogging is great but nothing beats the dying art of good handwritten snail mail. ?We are searching for an honest to goodness penpal.

Surfer hair

Patrick is on the fast track to teenage life !! The time spent in the pool has given him stiff glossy hair. He begins high school swim team in one week.
