Sunday afternoon from the marsh...

Nearing 5,000 visitors to the blog site gave me the inspiration to post a baker's dozen of new photos to help bring everyone up to date on our doings. I am amazed at just how many old friends tell me that they are reading the blog and will I please try to keep it more up to date?

I will, I promise!

Things are just almost always in high gear around here with educating a busy and happy 14-year-old and getting settled into the leased cabin where we'll be for a year while Ted builds our home back, getting ready for fishing season (yea) and doing the ordinary of cooking, cleaning, transporting, paying bills, and the like.  And, oh, yes, we do try to have a little fun from time to time, too.  Just now, Steven and Ted are visiting Rusty and Becky Cluck and their family before they head back to Zavalia and Austin.  Steven has so many new friends here and he keeps us on our toes getting him back and forth.  I don't know which will be worse - driving him all over and picking him up - or knowing he soon will be old enough to drive himself.

Lots of exciting plans in the works right about now and there's talk of a brand new newspaper coming to our Peninsula - the Bolivar Peninsula Examiner, which I've agreed to write and edit. More about that a little later.  Right now, I'm busy writing for The Beach Triton and will keep on doing that. Be sure to get and read this month's edition of that fun paper if you can.

Don't forget, next Sunday is Mother's Day, some women's favorite holiday.  If your mom is no longer living, choose another good woman and honor her in some fashion on this Mother's Day. It will be good for both of you and bring lots of happiness.  Life is short - use it wisely.

Until the next page turns,

Brenda

Enjoy the new blog photos.
