ORANGE SKY IN VERONA WALK

 Not everyday do we see our sky an other color from blue. Today was different for sure. The canals and reserve areas  looked fabulous with the Orange Sky. See for yourself.

POPPY TAKES A DIVE

For some reason Poppy scored a near "perfect score" with his Swan Dive on March 18. 

The event took place 12 hours after surgery to remove a growth (negative) in rear of lower jaw. It was the required 1:00 am potty call that did him in.

According to Gram he was found asleep on the floor. 9-1-1 was called and quickly took Poppy to hospital. It was pronounced a spiral fracture and broken shoulder that would require surgery.

March 28 was surgery day, and doctor said he figured out how to fix the puzzle piece (fracture). The repair is holding bone and mechanical shoulder together. Only issue is it hurts!

NORTHERN INVASION, CASSIDY & WILL VISIT TO NAPLES FL.

 April in the Glades was a good time for us at our "Casa" at the edge of the swamp. The reason for our happiness was we had a visit from Cassidy and Will.

We spent a few days together enjoying the pool and sun. They also took some time to visit the beach.

Because of the Covid lockdown we hadn't had a visit from Cass in quite a while and we were thrilled to catch up on life. Cass is doing great and has blossomed into a beautiful young woman.

Strangely we did not get any pictures during the visit, but we did receive a copy of a picture taken in front of Aunt Cindy's Apartment in New York a little later in the year. They had a grate visit also.

A SMILE FROM JOANNA

 

This little girl has finally sent us a picture of herself. This is Joanna Killian and we are quite proud of her. Maybe her Mom and Dad could send her to Florida to visit us. Sounds like a nice idea to me.

COVID ATTACKS CHARLESTON

News from Charleston is not so good.  It seems that Taylor has been hit by the Flu, but as of the 16th of February is making good progress.

It always seems to go as one recovers another goes down. This time it is Zachary who seems bitten by the Flu. 

Get well guys, and take care of Charlie Grace.
