This is similar to fireworks timed to music. Again, maybe the Internet is the new Ed Sullivan Show.

Evan took this picture yesterday. You can tell it’s a hot summer day when Loretta spends so much time relaxing in the pool. Whenever she feels like it she jumps in, climbs up on her float and the water carries her around in laps. She takes long floats five or six times a day. The other dogs would never dream of doing it, they think she’s crazy. Sometimes she’ll be playing with the other two Shepherds and use up all her energy running and chasing and being the aggressor and then when they start to get the upper hand she’ll run right into the pool and laugh at them. We’ve had great dogs in the family before I’ve never known another Shepherd as funny as her.

Maybe as Mitch convalesces he can be on the phone working radio. I was going to bring him this cool electric hospital bed that Dad has but Mitch got wind of it - Hillary warned that if we didn’t get it there and set up before he found out then it would be a no go. Even when he’s pumped full of pain killers Mitch’s radar still works perfectly. We’re going to go visit him tonight.

got an email and Hillary says he’s on his cell phone if you want to call him. This is Wednesday so don’t plan on going to the hospital after today. Hillary says that other than the pain, he’s doing good.

Hillary called Jimmie and Jimmie just called me. She says he did fine. I’m looking forward to seeing him.

We are very excited about the show tonight. We understand that Mitch will be in hospital; so sorry to hear about this. Also Glenn and Kim, good luck on your open mic at Casbeers Church. Cassell and Craig, hope you can listen in from the U.K. Becky, Tom, Jimmie, John, Nona, Jack, and other family/friends who can listen, please feel free to log onto our chat tonight from 7:00 to 9:00 pm. It will be on our show archives tomorrow if you aren’t able to listen. Love to all of you and thanks for this wonderful music. Love, Celina and Dew - am1670.net

Mitch and family and friends were down at Guadalupe State park and he jumped off a rock into the river. Unfortunately he jumped onto another rock under the water and broke two bones in one of his legs. He was in the hospital all night and will stay for surgery tomorrow. Pins and screws and setting off alarms at the airport are definitely in his future. He’s staying at the posh Metropolitan Methodist Hospital on McCullough Avenue. Hillary writes, “If you are in San Antonio, visiting hours are 9 A.M. - 8:30 P.M. The hospital website has a place where you can email patients or send ‘virtual flowers’ or ‘cheer-cards’ online.
Their phone number is 210-757-2200 and he is currently in room 528 awaiting surgery.”
Ouch.

My wish for my little brother; fast healing, good meds and food from the outside.

as a main part of Jimmie’s company picnic on Saturday. Jimmie had to be in for sure because everybody at work knows she sings and Taylor entered specifically to try to beat his mom. Jimmie sang first and got the whole place going crazy - when she finished the judge joked “Well, the other seven singers just dropped out”. In the end it was Mom singing Mustang Sally in first place and Taylor singing My Girl right behind her. But very close. Jimmie won $40 but Taylor had a lady run up and stuff $5 in his shirt pocket. It was Jimmie’s first pay for singing in years and I think Taylor’s first ever. They both got these trophies. What would have made an all out singing war is if Casey had been there.

You have to give it up, these photos make it look like the most beautiful of sports.
