Memorial Day Parade

Memorial Day Parade in small town Riverside in honor of our fallen heros.

Starting the Day

A nice start to the morning is a hot cup of rose bud tea. The aroma is wonderful and the taste is a subtle rose flavor.

 Ummm.....my mouth waters, the aroma of fresh baked, crusty Marco Polo bread. The bread is warm from the oven and ready to eat.

 The first slice, I always eat the heel of the bread, I just love the crust. What a great start to of the day.

Time Slips Away

I have not written in a long while, my sister died and although it was expected it was still very sad. Time was bound up in waiting, which is always hardest for the ones left behind. Some families are drawn together and some are torn apart, mine was torn apart long before my sister drifted away. I don't expect that time will heal and bind us together again. We are separated along blood lines and it seems they cannot be dissolved. What I now have left of family is my older brother and his family, and of course my children and grandchildren. It is sad.

 On a brighter note, I snapped this of my cat the other day.

What does a cat have to do to get a drink of water?
