Friends and neighbors

The Dauphins were here last night for pizza after a day at the railroad. It gave us a chance to show Matthew the Skype set-up. I am not sure if he or John had more fun fooling around with it.

This morning Peggy and Rich came by with some gifts from their trip south. Among other things, Tom got a t-shirt, and I got a YooDara doll: (think voodoo doll crossed with trolls and online game). Mine is Zen, a member of the Wisdom Tribe. According to the website, "Members of the Wisdom Tribe are considered to be the tribal elders and educators. They act as counselors to the YooDara Chief and spiritual leaders for all the people." Zen is supposed to give me the wisdom to balance my life with harmony and peace. Thanks, guys!

Okay, everyone, take a deep breath, let it out slowly and think peaceful thoughts.

All better?
