Howdy!
Hi Everyone!
PRAYERS TO ALL!!!
What a weekend! It was AWESOME! I'm exhausted...
Before I tell you about the weekend....NICE PIX! All of them! Beautiful scenery and dawgs! JLittle, LOVE your cute lil treedawg!!
We DID apparently get a small amount of rain here Sat pm! WoooHOoo...bout time... I watered today and it took forever but a little less forever... One more peach fell to the ground and I ate it...NOT a great one...lol... Bob decided we need to pick the rest and ripen them inside... HATE to waste GOOD one. OUr maters are not looking Great...but a few more edibles to go! There were monster storms here and there in MA but went around here and went around mums too... LOL.
Well, Bob and I had a WONDERFUL visit with mum on Sat pm. We did our best to get her up on Sunday...Oh My she was slower than Molasses in VT in midwinter... We FINALLY got her to our house and did our garden tour. She had NOTHING but GOOD things to say about the work Bob and I have put into it...YES! Then we rested and by the time we got her moving again we at about dinner time for The Greek Festival, in Cranston RI. When we got there Bob had to go park after dropping us off...and the MUSIC STARTED and the Dancers cued up...and Mum was NOT thinking she'd like it...BUT... WOW... I had nevr seen her so emotional and she was clapping and dancing in her seat. She LOVED the music and could see a blur of movement and red color with the dancers(they were GREAT youth dancers)...then when Bob had the food and we were meeting him at the table...she danced a Greek dance with me to the table! IT WAS AMAZING! She was emotional, teary eyed, remebering her childhood so long ago with the Greek relatives and...WOW! The food...to say the least was beyond belief. The "good stuff" was sold out and we had to go for 2nd and 3rd choices...so LAMB it was and OH MY! Melt in your mouth greek style lamb...perfect! Dessert good but darned if the baclava wasn't SOLD out! LOL.. Mum had already said before dessert that "NEXT year we will come earlier!" with excitement in her tiny beautiful 95 yr old voice and face... I was so moved myself to be honest. As we were leaving Miss Lil bladder(me) had to go to the bathroom before leaving...and I was still sad that my Psychiatrist, the Greek Orthodox Priest was some where we hadn't found... As I walked in the door of the Church... there he was! NICE visit with him...mummy was SO CUTE looking up to his very tall presence. He told Mummy he wants to visit her at home and bring her the Gift Of Holy COmmunion and she looked like she would cry as she smiled and said YES! It was priceless! She has only been to Church a couple times since I was born. SIGH...
I'm still just so happy and tired...and full...LOL...
I hope you all have a GOOD night and Happy Hunting!

PS... as for the crossbreds...My view is... just keep true to your own breed of choice, OR the crossbreds...whatever you choose and... DON'T let the future be a threat to your own breeding program and hunting time... Just my VERY HUMBLE opinion.
