Swinging and reading in the gazebo .. One of my favorite things.

Full of energy, Ron said we should do a friendship tour...

It's a beauteous day, so it sounds good to me!

First stop.. visit Tony, and get a smooch from Chili.

Tony and his wife Cheryl have chickens (thanks to Ron! --long story), and Emma and Lola were happy to see Ron.

Just a couple miles down the road, we got waylaid... We saw a dark plume of black smoke and it was a house on fire! Local rescuers were just arriving. (At the same time, Ron got a flat tire.. just a reminder that when things go wrong for you, you need to remember that things can always be worse...)

The homeowners escaped safely, but several firefighters were hospitalized and the house was demolished. (Just a reminder that when things go wrong for you, you need to remember that things can always be worse...)

Boy, that puts things in perspective...

Boy, that sure is heavy…

My girl Lorine gave me a good squeeze (with the fire raging in the distance). After this quick photo she went to relocate the neighbor's horses who were near the fire.

Another smooch for me.. this time from Shenanigans. (She whispered a secret in my ear, but I can't tell you what it was).

We stopped by Garden of Life to see Dawn, and were lucky enough to have her join us for lunch! We learned that sometimes instead of doing, it's good to focus on being.

Next stop, Sussex Bike & Sport to say HI to Jason. Ron got a new spare tube and they discussed the ergonomics of bike seats.

Hold your friends close and don't forget to tell them you appreciate them..! (you might think we're overlooking a lake, but it's actually a solar field.)
