Hackberry Trees, etc. #10

Wow, JoAnn.....what a wonderful business. They build one a year? Amazing! Do you live in a home filled with music? I already know about all the art. Thank you for sharing this video, I hope everybody takes a look at it. Maybe we should all gather together up there for a tour.

How beautiful.

Thanks Sharron I'll let everyone know when the next openhouse is when they finish the next organ.

Are they still working on the huge one for the cathedral....the one mentioned in the video?

No Its finished and they will take it apart and thansport it to Cornell.
SIL will be gone twice 4 days each, next month to install it and tune it.

Very interesting video, JoAnn.
Also great to see small businesses doing well in this economic climate.

Hi Sharon,
No end of things to do before we leave at 3 a.m. on Tuesday.

Received additional information (additional types of meetings) and had to make additions to my voting data sheets (to do what I said I'd do).

Buddy's good but returned to vomitting up his food, as he has periodically in the past. We're now trying out a programmable timing contraption to give him small amounts of crunchies at a time. We feel sure the reason he's sick is he eats too fast. He'll still be getting his soft food, dispensed in small amouts, by his cat sitter.

Just checked out how to get E-mail, down south, and got voice mail going on new cell phone.

Quite cold here. Wind chill has the day time temperatures about 15 degrees below the freezing point. Hope you're not having it too cold yourself. We meet friends from St Louis, Mo, at St Pete Beach and I know it's been very cold in their home area.

Things were quite polite at the Tuesday council meeting. Nothing worse than a few smiles from the kamakazi councillor. So far is gone: my letter in response to her's, her's to mine, mine to her's. Am quite sure she'll insist on the last word.

Hope all's well with Jazz, Daisy and Cupcake.

Charlie

Hi Charlie,
It's in the low 20's here, and I'm trying to not moan and groan too much, but it insisted on snowing a couple of inches so there you have it.

Good to know Buddy's going to be well taken care of by his sitter.

I hope you have a really warm glorious time in Florida....I'm sure you'll be warm.

The cats are fine, they are incredibly warm in their fur coats. I try to get them to lay across my feet, but I think my cold toes scare them away.

Be well and be safe and take lots of pictures. I'll be thinking of you on those warm, sunny beaches. (I'll probably also be grinding and gnashing my teeth. And shivering a lot!)

Enjoy!!
