MY GUARD DOG.

Tonight it is just Murph and I, which is ok until it thunders.
That is when this 90 pound dog man handles me. Under my
feet or else. He is a sissy.

THE NIGHT BEFORE--FAMILY AND FRIENDS

This was the scene at 4054 Kennedy Creek Road, on the
night before Joshua and Melissa recited their vows.
Hugh and Natali graciously brought together the couple's
family with a show of good old fashion hospitality.
For those who do not know Josh's mother, she joins him and
Melissa at Yegor's photo bench, in the top frame of the grid.

Delicious food and a happy celebration will long be remembered.
It was a good start for the next 50 years!

Polly with her favorite star

Paulette, I saw Garth on Oprah yesterday.
He said he may restart his career when the
girls were all in college, youngest is 11. He
said he was 44, so when he is 54 he may
hit the road again. Nothing was more important
than his children. You should have taken that
job to homeschool his kids on the road. What
a different way things would have turned out.
He may have still been married to Sandy and
you may have been rich. Did you see the show?
