July and all is well.


Since our wonderful trip to the North Country, things have been very quiet on the Sound. Watering has been the order of the day as the rains have ceased for a couple of months and the gravels and bedrock filter and seep away the moisture. Our big event was an evening in Tacoma for an a cappella peformance of music from the times of Henry VIII through Elizabeth I. Because the music was for church, it was mostly in Latin (translation was provided.)

One Saturday, recently Stidmama and I went to a Pampered Chef party and found some wonderful items to add to our kitchens.

So far, vacation has been placid. I have been enjoying the Lyric Pieces of Edvard Grieg on my recently-tuned baby grand. All I have to do is become more fluent with the music.
