6.7.14 Grass Volleyball Tournament, STONE Enjoy By, little visitor

6.7.14
Today I played in a Grass Volleyball Tournament.
It’s closer to my home, but less forgiving on the body.

Hello friend Kristy!!
Sometimes we play together but today
we both had other partners

Playing volleyball is not Beauty contest –
you get all hot, sweaty & yucky!

This is one of my favorite T-shirts.
It has a story.

now that Chester has a driver’s license he
came over to visit me at the tournament.

Meanwhile, Weasel was holding down the fort at home.

Michael saw these two dogs at our bakery in New Hope
at his rest stop while biking.

partner Melinda & Me.

3rd place out of 20 teams!

We were not even sure we would make playoffs
but we miraculously somehow did….

we lost in the 6th game that we played
back to back with no break.
It was demanding.

Mel’s injury….. grass burn

friend Cat stopped over after the volleyball Tournament,
She had the hoops I needed for my hanging earrings.

Thanks Cat!!!

We stopped at friend Jim’s tonight
and Enjoyed an ENJOY BY 7.04.14

If you happen to see this beer let us know.
It’s rare & a challenge to find.

We had a little visitor at our house today!
Sitting in the Princess chair!

Baby Tree Swallows –
Hoping the best for them

Weasel at the vet for a regular visit.
Chester came for support.

Rose’ wine tasting at work today.
tasty!

stopped at Yardley CC today but the buyer wasn’t in

a good stop at the Continental Tavern.
We’ll be tasting next week.

wonder what COCONUT means??

something to do with the HORSE??? maybe?

PROM night at one of the local high schools.
Everyone likes to use our Gazebo & open green.

It was First Friday in Ambler.
A big party!

ran into Linda our former dog trainer who we
HIGHLY RECOMMEND

sister Pat & I were going to see a play
at the ACT II Theater.

the set of Man of LaMancha

The best part of the show was the man
next to me shushing the people behind us.
” shhhhh There’s not talking in the theater!”
then they shushed him back!

there is an answer…………
