I did it!! You would not think this was a hard thing to do - but!! May is going WAYYYY to quickly for me, and I almost forgot my Orange Blocks!!!
Snuck them in in between the client projects!! Yay me!
I am not a huge fan of tomatoes - I am getting better, I do like them in salsa, chili, etc - so was pretty excited to see K's plants growing!!
5 years ago today we Lost my Mom. She and my Dad were quite involved in Ministry to Firefighters/ Fire Chaplains, and yesterday I was invited to a lunch by one of the groups they worked very closely with ( and I continue too, although not as much as they did) It was really nice to see how the things they helped start have continued to grow, and to talk with the folks that loved the,.
One Firefighter told me that having my dad come to his place was like seeing John Wayne walk in.. a total hero to him. Another told me about the behind the scenes work my Mom did, and how they were always amazed at how much she did for them.
That was nice. Nice to know they are both remembered so positively.

Wow, what a gift to know your parents are so fondly remembered. Your orange blocks look great, way to go remembering and sneaking them in!
ReplyDeleteI am really enjoying your colorful blocks. How sweet to hear how your parents left a legacy of love.
ReplyDeleteYour orange looks great. Good to see your "rig" in action to get you outdoors until your ankle is up to snuff again. As long as others continue to remember your mom and your dad, they will live on. What a wonderful legacy they built!
ReplyDeleteI know you don’t agree but there’s nothing better than fresh tomatoes out of the garden.☺️ The tomato plants are looking healthy. How wonderful to hear such nice stories about your parents.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely tribute to your parents, and how kind of the group to remember them that way.
ReplyDeleteGlad you have the 4-wheeler to tootle around in, and wow on that view!
My RSC orange blocks are not done - I have the pieces cut, but you are right - May will be over before we know it!
A beautiful event for you to attend and share your Dad with these people. Food for your aching soul.
ReplyDeleteThose Chunky blocks are great in every color. The name is perfect too. Glad you got a little rain. We did too, and avoided the tornadoes and hail. I admit to getting a tear or two reading about your dad. It's wonderful for you to hear how appreciated he was.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! So do the dogs run along side of you on leads or free range? Or do they hop on for a ride? LOL
ReplyDeleteSo glad you went to the luncheon--good for you and for the people there! Yes, having the 4-wheeler is a life saver for you on a lot of levels!
ReplyDeleteHow nice that people remember your parents with fondness. Your chunk churndashes look great in orange!
