Our family life in the tropics. Lots of music, art, gardening, cooking, traveling, ponderings, and joy. Creating memories, traditions
and hopefully some humor. Trying to give back as well.

my oldest friend

There is nothing like a friend who has known you your entire life. This is Kathy. We were next door neighbors since we were as young as I can remember. We played together - swimming, dolls, doing craft projects, playing four square and tennis in the street, having dinner at each others' house. She was my neighbor until we both went to college. She recently moved to a town next to my parents'. She has four children, and this summer we got to visit with them. The kids had a blast hanging out in their fort, riding scooters to get ice cream in the nearby village, watching the boats on the Erie canal. It rained, it was sunny, it was a glorious typical east coast summer day. Kathy sent me home with a jar of her homemade raspberry jam. Love you Kath!
