collins kids

We enjoyed a visit from grandson Josh and his family from Portland, Oregon. He took this picture of us with his three kids. l.to r. Liam, Miles and Stella. They had grown and changed a lot since we saw them last summer. They are all great talkers. Are you surprised? We hope that phone calls and letters will keep us in their lives. We gave them books as gifts to take home after raiding our local book store.

I am walking better now and doing more physical therapy to get rid of the effect of that crash caused by the running kid. I announced the last of the summer band concerts Sunday and also conducted Sousa's El Capitan which was great fun for me. Enjoy August. Love, Alice and Wag
