Dennis Won; Tylenol Zero

It's 10:45 pm and the house on the hill is quiet with the sounds of sleepy cats, and old brown dog and a snoring pirate. That is, except yours truely, who insists on letting the blogosphere know that a bright orange moon hangs outside the open window. Today Dennis commented on the bright orb in the sky...could this mean (a hush falls over southeast) sun on the 4th of July parade? Unbelievable!

It was Dennis won (a pun in honor of the Neillster) Tylenol zero today-mark one down for the pirate, who has become the master of healing. Dennis walks Kona, then leaves her at the house in the am and walks two more miles-he is beginning to get his strength back each day as he plans more walking as we return to First Hill this Monday. He is gearing up for that goat tag....
Tomorrow we ship a cooler of strength building food-venison and fish, mostly-so we can pick it up at the Seattle airport Monday. Dennis is an Alaska Airlines "known shipper" which comes in handy for 7 week trips away from home.

I am attempting to chip away at the work that has piled up at the office, keep the banana slugs out of the garden, nurse animals, and work on quilt projects. Salmonberries are beginning to ripen here, I may sneak out tomorrow to look at how my favorite places are doing. Until then, Faith and Dennis

Welcome Home...
The "pirate" look is so YOU. "Stands with Phone" is a fighter. Been 15-years since we were in Marbleton, WY with our best friends. Hard to believe how quickly time passes. Keep going, Dennis, we're all pulling for you and wishing you the best! Ron, Ron III, Lou and "Pearl"

Hey I was just thinking about you and thought I'd say so. Kylie and I just prayed for you. She got out of bed and reminded me! (Good kid that one!) Anyway, keep up the good fight!
