Big Weekend

Visit from Barb with Whirly, her brain damaged dog that can't run in a straight line, only in circles.  Whirly and Lu used to have a strange and wonderful relationship, and I was expecting a dramatic reunion since they hadn't seen each other in about a year, but they pretty much ignored each other.  Here they were last Thanksgiving.  Lu is teasing him by lying in his bed while he is locked outside:

Here was the best I could get this visit:

But mostly it was:

And then by some fluke I ended up in my old neighborhood, so I stopped by to visit my old neighbors.  They built their own house.  For two years they only had walls and were showering at the "Y."  But now they have a bathroom and dishwasher and everything and it's really nice!  

 




The pond that David had built was gone.  The little girl that lived there told me they changed the water and the fish died after that.  But it was filled in with flowers and looked very nice.  The lemon tree I had planted from seed is still there, looking like a small tree.  It was looking pretty spindly when I moved last year.
