Dad



Well I've gotten behind in my blogging. 
 My dad died August 13. 2018 and its taken me some time to get back to normal. 
I'm adjusting to not having a living father anymore and, along with my siblings,
been  busy taking care of mom, who we've gotten settled into assisted living.  

So this page is a tribute to my dad, one of the best a daughter could ask for.

My dad was a cook in the army, consequently, he could cook any thing from roast to pie!

He also loved camping and was a great grillmaster!

He was a mailman for 25 years.

He loved fishing.

Our last conversation.



Love & miss you dad!

Pelecinid Wasp


This formidable looking wasp cannot sting, but drinks nectar & water.
This is the only species of this type of wasp in the United States.
