My brother in law

 

Today, July 13, 2023, my brother-in-law Dewey, died in a Sacramento Hospital of lymphoma.

He graduated from UC Davis, but he liked being a farmer.

He enjoyed working in his orchard, growing walnuts and pecans. 

He loved his older brother Marvin, his sisters Mary and Bettie, his nephews and nieces

and his dogs.

I will miss his weekly phone calls

Asking me, how's the weather?

Telling me about his tomato crop

Always saying things were fine

(even when they weren't)

We always said I love you at the end of the calls.

Rest in peace, Dewey

I love you2

June Recap

Arboretum 

June has been a cool month with not a lot of sunshine, but very pleasant. I did some gardening, and planted tomatoes and peppers, and flowers. 

My friend N came to visit on June 11 and brought me a very nice pillow, then we had some delicious Pho.

 L and I went shopping for carpet and decided to get a room rug instead, we both like it a lot. And Lulu.

Our financial guy came by the house June 12,  and it was all good news :)

We had an evening stroll at the Fullerton Arboretum. It was very nice and the weather was great.

We went out to eat several times, and I ended the month by having a great lunch at Amor y Tacos. Probably one of the best meals I had lately.

Unfortunately, there's been many health problems in the family. My brother-in-law in Sweden had to go to hospital, and also my brother-in-law is in ICU. My sister-in-law also had to go to hospital but is now at home. My thoughts are with all of them and I hope and pray for a good recovery.
