Denise and her mom played (and her dad and I watched the group of about 25) at the Tampa Bay Fiddler’s Association last night. They did great!! They have a concert they will be giving on the 21st.

Dad L purchased a new digital camera this morning, now he can e-mail me pictures easily, I hope. Below are the first two pictures taken with the new camera:

Dad Herrick is heading up north for the summer next weekend. Sue and Al (and Dave as well ) say it is very wet up in the Northeast. We could use some of that rain here, we have only received 3 inches so far this year where we usually have had 11!
We have a lot of things on our schedule this summer, Charles’ graduation (Masters in Computer Science), Angelyne’s baptism, Joe’s change in command, and vacation in New Hampshire and Montreal.
