open wide

I had to visit the dentist again today, so I could not help but use this photo I took tonight at my mom's, along with those words. I was replacing metal fillings -nothing urgent mind you, but nothing fun either!

My sister kathy and her family are here visiting now. We had a lovely time swimming, splashing, talking and having dinner together tonight. At one point I walked around and took a number of photos. This fish is in one of my mother's many gardens.

I'm feeling peaceful, and I hope you are doing well. ooops! I almost forgot, tomorrow will mark my 500th blip. It certainly does not seem possible. Thanks for being here and checking in with me so regularly!
