Mia has turned 8 and is quite an artist. She can draw anything.
She went to a Birthday Party and her gift was a small Shinkansen Bullet Train set.

 I gave her a paper to draw a card. She drew the Shinkansen train.

 The inside of the card.

She even drew his baby sister next to their cat and dog not sure about the deer or tall dog.
 ...

Some photos from the week.
This was just over the hill but we did not get any rain.

As always here is your pretty for the start of the weekend.


Yuko and Mia few back to Japan.  
After a month visit we all miss them very much and a Gud Dug really misses Mia !

A photo Mia took of Mt. Fuji from the window of the plane.
She is really becoming a wonderful photographer.

Thursday morning I was able to have the door open. It has been over two
months since I have been able to have any door open even in the morning.
When the heat is over 115 in the day the earth doesn't get a chance to cool down.



Japanese granddaughter and her nice tall person are visiting for a month
before going back to school. She is working on her English while here
and homework lots of homework.
She only speaks English to us and when out in the world.

 She is a tornado of activity and then will fall asleep anywhere.


. .......

As always here is your pretty for the start of the weekend.

I was looking for a certain photo and of course I couldn't find it.
Instead here are some monsoon photos from the past few years.









  


















.
The weather patterns have changed and I really do not get to see these 
FABULOUS afternoon/evening thunderheads flying across the valley
dragging the rain behind them. I miss them, this is part of my childhood.


Have a wonderful weekend everyone.
cheers, parsnip and badger
