Late Summer musings

Well, here it is the last week Of August already. Where did the summer go? All in all it's been a pretty good summer. Here are some of the highlights:

We had a bear on our breezeway one night. Susan heard a noise so she got upto see what it was. When she looked out into the breezeway she saw a bear in the birdseed. We had forgot to close the sliding door in back and the bear just walked in. It ran out pretty fast but now before taking what was left of the birdseed.

We went to Yankee Stadium for an afternoon game. We took the train all the way in from Springfield. It was so much easier than trying to drive in. The Yankees lost but we had a good time there.

We (Susan mostly) are painting over the paneling in the breezeway. It was a dark brown and now it's a light blue. It really brightens up the area.

Erin and Greg bought a new house in Belchertown. It's like a A frame and has three bedrooms and 3 decks. It sits on an acre and half of land. They both like it very much. There's a little work to be done but nothing major. Heather bought a new house too in Palmer. She and Theresa moved in July. It's an older house but it was recently redone so there's not much to fix up.

We're looking forward to going to Ireland. We'll be there for 10 days which will give us enough time to explore new places and also revisit some of out favorites.
