Yes, Donna, we remodeled for the 2nd time last year. Fires, earthquakes, mudslides, & lot line adjustments have all taken a toll on us over the years. Time to make life a lot easier! Where to? We've been looking & looking. Would welcome ideas.

It's going to be a long HOT summer for SoCal, as Denise well knows. We're bracing ourselves. We saw how serious the fires were in Florida while we were in the Bahamas recently. I'm sure you all will be enduring the drama on TV. We're having a terrible rattlesnake year here, also. (Another drawback to our lifestyle in these canyons.)

After we drove up to this spectacle, Don saw me with the camera....he said, "Why are you taking pictures???" I said, "Who, me?? Just documenting....." Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
