Labor Day 2012 (09 03 2012)

Today is Sept 3rd...  and the Labor Day Holiday...   We had a great BBQ last night with the Farner Family.  ...  We even had Ray Berryman stop by and see us too.  Sue goes in for her Knee replacement surgery on the 11th... 

Last night Melba lost one of its "Biker Boys"...  Rick Phillips passed away..  May God let him travel the open road in peace.  Such a gentle man, with such a tough life....  At least he went quickly, but with those around him that loved him.   A life well lived!

My cousin, Kevin, suprised me with some pics of the family this a.m.   I put one up on my FB cover page of all the kids w/Gma Ferro and Gpa Ferro...  The "typical" italian  la familia!  It's amazing that the more things change, the more they stay the same. 

... and Emily Farner has put the old "guilt" upon me again.  She sent home a box of green apples, so the first batch of applebutter is in the rice-cooker!  hmmmmm  I guess I shouldn't complain. it is always YUMMY!.   Now, if I can get some of the pears off of my tree,  apple-pear butter might just be wonderful too! ..

The first batch of apple butter turned out "wonderful"...  the second batch is going now.  I'm very tired, and have a zonging headache from the allergies... so I guess I will stop for now.  However, will go on the hunt for some aspirin for the headache, and maybe see about locating some "food"!    hahahah

So I guess fall really isn't too far away.... UGH!!!  Summer is still my favorite season!
