MOVING TO DENVER

Last week our daughter, Catherine moved to Denver.  We had the pleasure of having her stay with us for 11 days before she moved.  We will miss her dearly but she had the opportunity to advance in her job and is now a Supervisor of Customer Service at the Counter of SWAirlines in DEN.  We are so proud of her and know that she will do well.

WORKING ON THE FARM

We recently visited Audrey (Sylvia's sister) an her husband Gene at their farm in Marengo, a subburb in the NW part of Illinois close to Elgin and Rockford.  Here are a few of the things we did at the Garcia farm:  everything rom processing and grinding fresh meat, feeding chickens, duck and turkeys, stacking wood, hauling brush, mowing lawns, cooking, cleaning and organizing cupboards and pantry, harvesting fruits and veggies (onions and garlic, herbs, pears, chili, rubbarb, etc) photographing cows, fruits, flowers and Sylvia on the lawnmower - laugh all you want.  We worked hard but had a good time doing it.  Enjoy the pictures - there were 672 so be grateful we only put out a few.
