Ninety Party

 Beth organized the most wonderful party to celebrate Mine and Tom's 90th birthday year.  We had family and friends come from Indiana, New York, Florida, Arizona, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Texas, Ohio   and Kentucky, West Paris and Sumner. 

We had a grand dinner at the Hilton Garden Inn with some 44 people present.  Sam did a marvelous video and Sara did her great job as MC for the evening.  Grandson Archie spoke for a toast as did Cousin Charlene.  Charles Marten spoke and Pastor Mace did the blessing. Molly did all the invitations and arrangements for the event.

First 2023 daylilies

 Here it  is  July 3rd  and my daylilies are just starting.  But that's better than last year, when I didn't see a single bloom.

June 30 storm

 We had quite a thunderstorm on Thursday, June 30 which took out most of our road and all of our driveway. Leonard said he measured 4 inches of rain in one hour, hence the amount of road destruction.

We cannot access our mailbox due to deep water eroded ditches, though we have a little path to get the car out, which the road commissioner fixed for us.

The sun actually came out today. 

Tom has been riding his 4 wheeler on the trails.  He went out Thursday and got home   just before the storm came. He found lots of storm damage today.
