Tuesday, August 17, 2021

Good morning sunshine! It’s the dog days of summer here in Central Florida … but we’re the fortunate folks in today’s world. So much devastation in other regions. 

Our friends in western Canada 🇨🇦 are watching wildfires approaching their properties. Michael W posted FB pictures of the fire proximity to his Kelowna home … 





and Rick and Ruth have a sense of deja vu watching from their Lake County home … 



Our thoughts are with our friends and cousins living through this wildfire inferno season. Wildlife has been decimated. Requests for folks to put out buckets of water for the fleeing animals. Utter devastation. 

News from the island nation of Haiti 🇭🇹 is grim with the death toll rising hourly from Saturday’s earthquake. (Eleven years ago a major quake hit Haiti.) 


Today’s death tally is 1400 and rising. Utter devastation in the southwest area of the island. 😳

Let’s focus on good news … 











Combatting climate change involves ALL OF US. Little things add up … 





Well today really went to hell in a hand basket 🧺 … heard about a Winnipeg friend’s husband passing away suddenly … no sooner processed that idea and wrote a message to Glenn … 

Then Sue told me our Winnipeg friend Les is being taken off life support today after a battle with Alzheimer’s. A message to Lynne … and a card ready to mail … 

Nancy’s vet stopped Kachina’s chemo, all 4 treatments unsuccessful … she will be gone in a few weeks. 😢 That’ll be awful for Nancy as Kachina is her life after losing her husband 5 years ago. 

Please … some positive news 🙏🏻 

Tonight, we met Kim and Bob and went to Pat & Ken‘s pool for a swim. We had a couple of hours before thunder started and we had to head home. It was great fun to hear about their trip to the keys.
