Ahh ok!! My dad is the same way. 😊 I find all the family stories fascinating and of course appreciate all the things that have been passed down through our family...books, photo albums, furniture, clothes, civil war relics...but when it comes to remembering who's related to who and how, I get so lost!

Oh no, Doreen! It's frustrating when that happens. Hope the cable company shows up in a timely manner!

Meg the cable guy just fixed everything. Was a little weird having to wear my mask in my apartment when he came in but better safe than sorry. Thankfully he was able to fix everything. Yay!

In the summertime we can't get
enough ice cream.
Lately, it's peaches & cream.


message 669: by Hannah (new)

Hannah Alane | 662 comments OOO, peaches and cream is always refreshing in the summer! Are you part Georgian? ;) Whenever I think of peaches anything, it always reminds me of Georgia!

Joanna Just a heads up...I will most likely be away all of next week. My dad and I are going down to PA and OH, leaving very early this Monday morning and coming back late the following Monday. But don't worry...I'm not going to leave Dorry in charge! 😋😂

Sweet mercy, thank you!
You must be excited for the break.
It is nice to see your father is back to
normal. Could you please take pictures
of Amish country?


message 676: by Hannah (new)

Hannah Alane | 662 comments OOO, we've been near there for Amish country too, Meg!! So cool! Hope you and your dad will have a lovely time!


message 677: by Joanna (new)

Joanna Thank you both! 😊 Ruth, my camera will be with me at all times! Hannah, what areas have you been to? We are actually taking some Amish friends down there, first to Brookeville (near Punxsutawney) and then Enon Valley, near the OH border.

We visit in Homes County, OH!!

Ok! I don't think I've been there before, though I've heard of it of course. 😊 My dad's family live around Warren OH so we will probably be around that area while the Amish are visiting their family in Enon Valley.

Joanna Well dear friends, we are leaving at 3 in the morning. I most likely won't have any access to internet while I'm gone. We should be back sometime next Monday (probably late). I'm taking Mosses with me, so I'll catch up on the discussions when I get back. 😊
Dorry, behave yourself! 😁
