Jam Packed Week...51º

Our girls arrived on a Saturday, adding their dog Ginger to the mix...We spent many hours, slowly letting them tolerate each other, hoping that in the future they will be friends...After much hissing, back arching and some barking, we and they settled into a routine, where cats and dog could be loose in the same room!

Herb and I had several appointments (made weeks in advance) so we worked around those, cooked, played cards and sat on the deck...Cienna is moving into an apartment this fall, so I parted with some of my treasures (wooden crates, dresser, bookcase). Also warm quilts, made by her great grandma and her great, great grandma...We spent one evening when she modeled vintage clothing, including her great grandma's wedding dress, some of her Mom's clothing from the 70's and a black velvet dress from a yard sale, years ago...You just never know what you might find in Oma's closets.

On a rainy morning Bobi, Ci and I decided to play tourist in downtown Joseph, (and so did a bajillion real tourists)...Arrowhead Chocolates, in its new larger, location, was full with a long waiting line, so we spent an hour browsing in Anton's and B Crow B's, before going back to the chocolate shop to enjoy Mocha's and Lattes...It was crowded and noisy and we were happy to return to the quiet of our Barton Heights home!...To be continued...Hugs to all...OWAV:)
