Well, I have entered the world of blogging.  Many thanks to my niece Julie for helping me get my blog up and running. I hope this will be a good way to keep in touch with my family and friends who are so far away.  So, welcome to my blog, come back often, I hope that sometimes I'll have something interesting to write about.  We have had quite a fun, busy summer so far, so my next couple of entries will be about what's been going on around here.
