Started the day driving down to FOPAL at 8:30 and worked there until 11:30. Got all the backlog cleared out. Then back to CH just in time to had Fred Forester over to his owner who was ready to leave on a date of her own.
At various times in the afternoon I uploaded some of the pictures from Joyce’s book to the Family Album gallery. They aren’t in one place, they are spread out in their proper year order. The quality of these images, being scanned from a page of a xeroxed book, is not very good, but some are worth keeping regardless. Like the girls at 8 and 10 (yesterday), or this one of Joyce in her senior prom dress, which she says she made.

A select few people who see that picture can say very precisely where she was standing. Well, three living people, is all. Because they’ve stood there, walked that ground.
At 3pm I met with Susan who volunteered to perform in the upcoming musical event, 9/19, when the Good Times committee is presenting a selection of broadway show tunes. She and I are going to try to sing along to the Supercallifragalisticexpialidocious scene from Mary Poppins. Today we practiced it a bit. If you try to sing along with the video of the movie scene, you basically can’t do it. My gosh they go at an incredible rate.
HOWEVER if you know what you are doing, any Youtube video has a settings icon which if you click it, gets a menu that includes “Playback speed” and click that and select speed 0.75 and hey, all of a sudden they are going at a rate a human mouth could keep up with.
