My daughter and grandbaby are headed this way for a long weekend.. can't wait!!! Weather was HOT..and now it looks like that time in the pool may have to be delayed. Wind has picked up and it is supposed to be much cooler tomorrow.
Will be great to spoil them for the weekend!
And grandbaby number two is just over a pound, nearly a foot long, 23 weeks in the womb..... and moving up a storm. Will have to start bugging her parents for a name :)

Sunshine!
It's the fourth of July and it is a beautiful day in Selah! Had lots of fun at a family BBQ yesterday.... as usual, way too much to eat :) The next generation, Norma's great grandkids, enjoyed the pool and running around in the yard.
I am pleasantly relaxed and cooled off, after hanging out in the pool for a time. YAY!
Had some odd, disjointed thought ramblings, floating around in the pool... among other things, I was thinking about Ree Drummond, aka Pioneer Woman, and how different her life would be if she had not visited her local watering hole that first night she met Marlboro Man....
Was thinking how some people take risks, while others chose not to, and how "chance" encounters and decisions put us on wholly different paths than we might have expected.... Nothing we haven't all thought of one time or another.... not sure why it appeared in my thoughts in the pool :)

| Geraniums, lobelia, coleus, and a calendula to the right |
 |
| Walla walla sweet onions - just about ready to harvest |
 |
| I have FOUR kinds of zucchinis... this is a yellow zucchini, can you tell? :) |
