Linda is back from vacation in Virginia Beach where she attended a cousin's reunion and a high school graduation.

The weather was perfect, I had family accomodations and no hotel bill. My cousin was in the hospital, but she's out now, so I'm grateful.

The graduation party was great with good food and a DJ. The only dancers were my newly discovered 5- and 6-year old cousins, Vinnie and Gage. Let me know if you'd like to see pictures.

Nate, the graduate is thinking he has the world by his fingertips before college in the Fall, but didn't we all at that age?

It was great to be with family and attend synagogue and church services together. But I missed my own congregation.

My latest gift items are beaded jewelry, all made in different colors and styles. Check them out at http://www.linorstore.com/val2.htm and other gift pages.

Tip for keeping mosquitos away. Keep a sheet of Bounce in your back pocket. It's also great for picking up cat hair and freshening trash cans. Tip suggested by Marilyn. Thanks for the suggestions, Mare.

Saw friends from out of town before my vacation and have some picture printing and catching up to do.

There are not enough hours in the day.
