Neighbors...55º

Neighbors for twenty years, over the fence friends...We kept an eye on each others places when one set of us was off on a trip...Quite ofter we picked up mail, watered plants, occasionally someone needed to borrow something...We waved and visited over the fence about families and how our respective gardens were coming along...They were active in their life and we in ours...Two years ago cancer was diagnosed, chemo therapy treatments put it in remission but this spring it came back, another round of chemo...It didn't help...Our neighbor died this week at home with his family...Picking up the pieces now, his widow, moving on with her life, we her neighbors ready to give a hand.

Today is "Fathers Day" our kids are miles away but I'm sure will check in with their Dad via telephone or FaceTime...We have a dinner planned, driving to Union with friends to check out the historic Union Hotel and sample its food...The hotel built in 1921 when Union was the county seat and a booming town...A scenic drive, a visit along the way, a good way to celebrate...Hugs To All...OWAV:)

Bears had been killing our sheep so measures were taken.
