GOOD MORNING!!! Last to first: Thank you Mary Beth! YOU are very, very cool! :) * Ron...sadly July and August bring forest fires. There had been a BAD B.C. fire (one after the next) and the sky was so hazy since the air masses travel west to east...so it made for crummy shooting...but alas. Late afternoon brought thunder, black and white clouds lightning and GLORIOUS RAIN. It was heavy and rained all night. Ahhhhhhh! When I woke up the sky was clear and fresh and there were puddles and color and reflections everywhere I looked. I was in Heaven! :) !!! (FYI-Not many fires in June or Sept). * Jeff, you are too kind. Wouldn't it have been perfect had a JET gone across the sky right then! HA! Not on the path however!!! :) * Mr. Tree, once again you are so wise. And I do look. They are special to me so I don't want to miss them. Fall colors are here now so I hope to catch a pretty one to share! * Swimming Pool? What's THAT? HA! Born and raised in California I was always in a swimming pool. Up here...different story. In 19 years here I have seen one home that had one. I guess because it gets down to -45*f in the winter and the summer heat is not promised people just pass on it. :( I haven't met many Canadians my age and older up here that even know HOW to swim! * Thank you so much Lynne! I was pretty happy to see it there! :D * Thanks Tiia! You're always short...but sweet. HAVE A GREAT DAY ALL! -Laura

To answer your question, Laura (and in Peter Sellers' words in one of the old "Pink Panther" movies): "That is NOT my dog!" ha! I always loved that line & I finally get to use it! Where is our Birthday Girl? She must be out celebrating with some other family & friends right now. I hope she gets here soon! Of course, there's plenty of food to last us all a few days! GREAT PARTY!!!
