Trip to Rochester and Arkport

Lou and I were on vacation from July 3 until July 10 (I actually returned July 15) taking our yearly trip to visit relatives and get a break from the Florida heat! We had a really nice time and as usual did not get to see everyone we wanted to. We apologize. We did get to visit Lou's Aunt Sherie and Uncle Al and his grandmother. We also visited a friend Lou has not seen in three years, Mike Tuttle. I had my 20th high school reunion....yes that is right, I said 20th!!! That was a blast and it was soooooo good to see everyone who attended. There was also a birthday party for my mom whose birthday is actually in August but they will be away on vacation (Alaskan cruise) and she wanted to be able to have the party when Lou and I were visiting as well. I stayed on a little longer to visit with Mom, Dad and Bill. Check out a few of our pictures below.

Empty Nest

Well, about a week after my last posting in June the birds had grown enough that they flew away. I was actually kind of sad as I was used to checking on them every morning. About a week later, Lou and I are sure that they revisited us on the back patio with Mama bird. Who knows??? But we think it is pretty cool!

The babies are growing!

Empty nest!!!

Test run. (One bird flew from the nest to a hanging pot across from it.)

Return visit???
