Today's transition

Yellow ochre today

Even the birds admired the morning sunrise today, featuring a yellow ochre, viewed from the window on a chilly start at Hotel California.

Enhancing sketching skills

Emily got a new Apple Pen just in time for a holiday stay-over. Her characters can now be developed on lap top. This does not count against her screen time allotment. She split the cost of the $90 pen with Grandma and loves using it. Her mother is in Florida and returns for Monday.

Out they go !

Just goes to show you, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. We cleared tons of rocks off of these pallets. We knew what to do with the rocks, but the dozen pallets they came on? Break them up and dispose? An ad on social media did it. Elizabeth lives on a farm 25 miles away and she spotted the offer: Free. I told her if she would come and get them, she was first in line. Darnita didn’t show yesterday. Elizabeth dispatched her son and the deed was done. They are going to a 12 acre hobby farm with four pregnant lambs, Josh said, as he tightened down the load.

Concert Mistress?

Emily performed with the orchestra last night. They just keep getting better. Practice does it! Photo by Grandma, who came early to grab good seats!.

More rock

Ran out of rocks at the pond project at Hotel California; a second shipment arrived today. They will keep until Stan arrives to perform his specialty: moving rocks from the front to the back yard pond. Hai is stone placement specialist.

How to use blog to remember Jen

Welcome.

This blog has given us some comfort in the days following the loss of our daughter. It is filled with stories and pictures of her many life experiences. If you knew and cared for Jennifer, you might wish to do what we do too.

Look in the upper left corner of this blog and find the search box. Type in Jennifer and it should sort a treasury of photos and stories involving our Jennifer. There are quite a few pages, you may wish to just scan for the ones you’re interested in. Perhaps you can search your name too.

Friends are welcome to visit this blog whenever. No password needed, it is public domain.

If you have difficulty or think you might not be getting the full documentation, keep trying or let us know. There is an awful lot here and we hope you enjoy using this to give comfort at our great loss.
