New Car

It was time...time to get another car. And JJ is sooo happy. He just loves to ride in it.In the photos the car colors are sort of hard to differentiate. The old car is black and the new car is gun metal grey. It's got Blue Tooth for hands free cell phone calls when I finally get it all figured out. I kept the same license plates CLN 017 which happen to be my sister's initials: Catherine Liddell Nelson. MLM

Victorian Tea a la 2010

I've never been so uncomfortable in my life and had so much pleasure fun at the same time. We ate cucumber sandwiches and sweet cakes and drank raspberry tea and discussed the Victorian/Edwardian novels we had read. I presented a newly printed version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde with many old illustrations of the period. Kathalee, our hostess, made the dress she wore which had a Scarlett O'Hara look about it.
I took pictures of all the brave souls who wore costumes - note that one lady came dressed in a black satin cape as Sherlock Holmes.
I was so amazed when I looked in the mirror with my hat on how much it resembled my dear mother who always wore hats during my growing up years when she went out.
I can't seem to move the pictures around on this blog so you will have to look for me in my purple outfit. Bye Bye Dec 19, 2010

Georgetown HS Band Comes to Town -Dec 4-2010

The weather was perfect. No rain. No frost. No ice. No snow. Sunshine, yes! Balmy, yes!
The reverse of last year's event. And they looked so smartly marching along. And they had 5 huge silver tubas. And Jack came out to watch!!
