Summer is zipping by so fast, glad you got some pleasant company to enjoy. I'm glad we have a Cat again... there, I said it! *Smiles* I resisted so strenuously after Miss Priss passed away last November and resolved to have no more! I was so reluctant to bring Eli in, now I couldn't Imagine our Family without him already! Your Fur Babies are so Photogenic! Our little Guy hardly holds still to get great candid shots like that of him!

I'm impressed with your lake swimming. I've done a mile in the pool before, but I've never been swimming in a lake. I can't believe you count strokes! I have a hard enough time keeping up with laps! I don't know if you stick with one stroke, but I seem to last a little longer if I change up my stroke sometimes. <br /><br />I love the Lizzie pictures and all of the painting you're doing.
