Family news - Sonja made it safely back to CA, though not without a hassle at the Syracuse airport. I guess she was unlucky enough to be "helped" by an agent-in-training.

Mom is still picking blueberries everyday. It's a good thing Nancy has a big freezer too.

Skip was ushered quickly out of the hospital after last week's surgery and doing better after a rough weekend. They decided he was ready to go home - without taking into consideration that it might be more difficult to navigate on crutches than it is for most people. He was looking OK though - and doing well enough for a cart ride around the property. His pears trees are bending under the weight of abundant fruit. I tried to help him out by taking a few bags of pears, hot peppers, zucchini, squash and tomatoes.

Sahara's bachelorette party was this weekend. Haven't heard much about it but I guess there is probably a reason for that.

Gearing up for Toby's big post-wedding party this weekend. I made cookies and cinnamon rolls - hope I remember to bring them.
