Today’s the Summer Solstice in our Northern Hemisphere! 🌞

There’s been several extended family events lately! 


Congratulations to cousin Flo and husband Peter on the birth of their baby! Hector has arrived earthside. He’s a fine looking lad. 🥰

Best wishes to cousin Elliot and Chase on their Wednesday wedding! 






The Buchanan Tartan was well matched by Chase! ❤️



The Tawns family, minus Flo and Peter in the U.K. were there to celebrate with Elliot & Chase. 

Tomorrow, Bonnie arrives with 18 lb. Wyatt. We’re ready to welcome this cutie into our family. Robbie and BeeZee know … there’s a crate set up in our Sunroom for him. We have some fun planned for the weekend! 


More pics in the next few days!

Yesterday we had a fun friends night out at El Mezcal in Mt. Dora. Great food and lively conversation! 





Whatta crazy group! 

The K’s are safely in Canada for the summer and having dinner with Tony & Aurelia this evening. Have fun!

Mark’s niece Olivia is with her brothers Jackson and Marshall plus her dad, Danny in North Carolina. We’ll see them all at nephew Jeremy’s wedding in October! 





Ebay sales have been brisk benefitting animal rescue. Diane donated more items last Sunday! Thanks! 

Enjoy the upcoming weekend … and if I’m not separating Scotties next week 😂 I’ll post pics.  

Ta ta til then.

Good afternoon! It’s been a minute since Blogging hasn’t it! 

We’re doing well …. bowling, boating and swimming with summer well underway in our region. 

RanDawn have been hosting family gatherings with Jan, Dawn’s mom, in town for a month. We were lucky to see them at Lake Eustis Waterfront Grill last Tuesday evening. It was a nice night! 

EBay sales have been brisk thanks to the recent “turning out” (as mom called it) by Sue, Diane and me.  Diane has really been busy! Who knew “Patio Dresses” were a hot summertime seller? In the “olden days” they were house dresses. 

Our friends Bonnie & Roger in Oklahoma were hit with a huge tornado about 10 days ago. Bonnie’s car is totalled, their fencing and dozens of trees are down. But … their house survived whereas 3 neighboring homes were demolished. Fortunately all their animals survived too! 





We’ve BIG news! This wee boy, Wyatt, is coming with Bonnie from Tulsa on June 21st!



Wyatt is retiring from showbiz / breeding and becoming a pampered pooch at our house. Mayhem will reign for several weeks as Robbie (13 1/2) and Belize/BeeZee (11) sort out his position in the squad. 😂 As Mark says “All hell’s going to break loose!” 🤣 Wish us luck. 🍀 

Wyatt is 2 years, 3 months old … a perfect age for us. And, Robbie and Bee will be crucial in his house-breaking. They’re both easygoing and trustworthy doggies. 



Next blog will be family wedding news from Australia.
