That’s how hot it is here! Crazy. Julia wanted to go to the little pool, but that’s not open yet. We had to manage with the sprinkler instead. This weekend Jay got the a/c going. We don’t have central air. It’s incompatible with the boiler and radiator system, but we do have window air conditioners. […]
t.c., m.c., and john This trip extended only to the dock. Last year we didn’t even buy a fishing license. There was no fishing. But this year we got it done. Joe helped the guys fry fish for supper last night. He knows how to cook it just right, crisp, light, tender, delicious. Sam was

Yeah, she’s still getting watched, and that’s for the best. She’s been a little angel the whole day. This is pretty nice after yesterday. We did errands with p.j. along and Julia helped. Later we grocery shopped and she picked out a gift for her cousin. It was a good thing in the end, getting
The first communions were at two different churches across town from each other, but we met up for one shared reception afterward.
