The Dog Days

We are in the midst of summer and we are coming up on changes soon....like back to school. But for now let us all enjoy the Dog Days of Summer. ( This saying goes all the way back to Greek times denoting the hottest time of the year when the Star Sirius was rising in the night sky. The star Sirius was the eye of the constellation Canus Major. And you thought that it had to do with dogs panting to keep cool or hot dogs at the county fair) Just a little trivia for you.

Happy 18th Birthday Sean!

and to Mike a very Happy Birthday

We are all sending birthday wishes your way, Sean and Mike (I think Mike is the older guy)

Ginger's Big Adventure

 Here is a picture of Ginger being brought home with her tail between her legs after escaping from the confines of her Hemlock Street home. Ginger ran away looking for fun and adventure but instead became afraid of all the fireworks going off. A couple picked her up and took her home with them. and she was there overnight. Needless to say Twin was frantic but through much searching, canvassing and facebook posts, they were able to find her.

Six Flags Over Georgia

 Takeshi and Allison went to Atlanta to pick up Allison's friend from the airport.....Hana had been in Japan for vacation and to visit family. Takeshi had to go to get his passport renewed so since they are the rollercoaster crazy people they had to go to the park. I have the best video (too long to post here) of them getting soaked on a water ride.

Emma's Big Party

 Emma had a huge graduation party.....I've been promised more pictures and will post when I get them.

Summer Fun.

Jim with a Bass that he caught and I think threw back in.

 Allison's special filter for her camera so she can take photos of the solar eclipse on August 21. The eclipse will be 100 percent just south of where she lives.......between Pawleys and Charleston.

I've been going often to Greenfield Village and this is a photo of Cotswold Cottage. They serve a full English tea on the terrace to the right.

 Nothing like hanging out in your neighborhood watching the filming of a TV production for Lifetime TV. They used the inside of the house for the main character's home. Looks like quite the production.

TB

In honor of Mike's birthday and Gram's birthday at the end of August, here is a wonderful picture of them both.
