Eucharistic minister Sr. Susan Wolf brought communion, and so did Julia Finley and her daughter Kate from Blessed Sacrament...and good long conversations.

Eliane brought groceries and wonderful cooked vegetables and rice.

Mark Jacobson, my financial advisor, also checked out the new kitchen.



Sherry Svares Sanabria and her painting...



 Jon safely back from Afghanistan...

 Former neighbor Kathy and a talk about geneological research...

 Trish with tales of her wonderful new granddaughter, Tess...

Distance learning: I'd email questions from time to time to nurse friends in Chicago and Maine, Ida, left, and Bianca, right. Ida and Shelly, center, are high school classmates, Dominican High School, Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin, 1960.

If you're in Alexandria Va., with a little time, stop at Carlyle House, shown here, where Shelly is a docent.
