Life is difficult for Grace when the her favorite people want to watch TV and she was hoping to be the center of their attention. To be honest Grace has to admit Frances had given her much attention prior to the program starting that she planned to watch. Enter William!!!!!!! maybe he will give me some attention? as you can see Wm too wanted to watch the program and was attempting to watch while avoiding Grace and her kisses. BTY the grandkiddies were trying to watch the tivoed High School Musical 2.

Summer is rapidly coming to an end. It is most difficult to believe it is already past the middle of August and the family will be leaving in two weeks. William has finished sailing camp, tennis clinics have come to a close and for the past couple days the temperature have been quite chilly (high in the mid 60's) especially when one is not sheltered from the breezes. The sun is no longer up at 6:30 or setting after 9. Grace and I miss the days with the early sun rise.

The garden is looking sad though the flower boxes and flower pockets in front with the annuals are still looking lovely. Need to improve the perennial flower plan and incorporate more annuals into the perennial bed next spring.

Graces says Good night Frances, Good night William, you are my favorite people. I will miss you when you go back down state to return to school. We have had a wonderful summer.
