Skip & Sally's Party Sept. 6, 2008

Where's Skip and Sally? They must be in the back by the big screen. That must be Akron U on the screen because Ohio State game is over.

There's The Skipper. Check out the 57" TV!



Skip thought of it all, including a port-o-potty in the front yard.



Janice, Ann Marie, and Timea waiting for the band. Can you say "Heineken?"

The Captain presides over the festivities.

The Flyin Jays played it all - oldies, folk, blues, and some Irish drinkin' tunes...

with a little help from a young Flyin Jay

Put the guitar down. It's time for a little dancin'...

Ann Marie and a new friend...

Janice and Ann Marie teaching how it's done!

Thanks Skip and Sally!

Skip's the man. A good time was had by all!

Trees 9/20/2008

I think that I should never see,
A thing as lovely as a tree,
That was leaning toward my home,
And now lies safely on the loam.

Waiting on the tree monkeys.

You're not going to cut that tree with those clippers.

Those trees have to go. Five of these trees were taken down.

That's the way to do it.

Almost ready!

Wow!

There she goes!

Crazy!

There goes another one.

Flying trees.

Now for some fun!

Up, up and away.....

Ann Marie on top of the world.

Back to earth.

Mom isn't going to be left out of the fun.

The crane operator seems to be enjoying this...

...and so does Lois.

That's a long way up.

What a view!

High Hi!

That was fun.

I'm glad the knot held.

A great day!!!
