FRIENDS ARE THE ULTIMATE!!!







Friends really are the threads which give life its fabric. I have shared so much inspiration,have had so much fun in these last two weeks rekindling old, and wonderful friendships. Where to begin is the question, I now ask? In these photos you will see me with my best friend Lisa, her two daughters Kylie who is turning seven, and Kasey who is turning five. My favorite is the one in front of the lobster tank while we visited the Lloyd Center. Kylie is trying to escape, fearing the lobster is going to jump out of its tank and get her! Kasey is laughing, as she has no fear! We have been to the beach, animal farms, and just hung out with each other, her husband Chris, her mother Kay, who is a wonder, all the sisters, and kids, laughing, eating lobster etc. and what a time we had!

Some photos (none are in order) of my good friends Suzy and David, fun filled, creative people. We have enjoyed each others company, laughed, and enjoyed a meal together. David is the artist of the famous Hurricane Bob drawing above my couch. We all took a boat ride to the Island of Cuttyhunk with my friend Duncan, and shared cocktails on his deck overlooking the beautiful Atlantic Ocean.

You see my good friend Liz with her three rescue dogs. Liz was one of Zoey's vet techs when I lived back there. We had a great day together drinking wine, laughing, eating, and catching up on many subjects, such as relationships. I don't believe we came to any conclusions!

My good friends Rachel, (who was also one of Zoey's vet techs) and Dave are not pictured here, as I stupidly, did not bring my camera to their daughter Sam's sixth birhday, but it was awesome to spend a little time with them!

My last night I went to a concert on the bay for $5 to see Ernie and The Automatics, two members were from Beaver Brown Band, and one from Boston. Lisa, my bother Sebby, his wife Olga, Mr. O, and Maise joined us for the festivities. There is a bit more to that night, as I got quite a buzz, and Lisa had to drive me home. The next morning when Olga took me to retrieve my car we found the area locked, and I had a slight panic attack as I was leaving in the next hour. We managed to find a way out, it was quite amusing after the fact!

I am home now and looking very forward to visiting with my friends here, and sharing my adventures with them! Tomorrow is Sandys' celebration of life, so I will have to share some humourous memories from our times we spent together.
