#250

Wow, this is my 250th post! Well, I have just a very worthy subject for this post, a brunch party at camp with the Dickens Clan. Sarah, Mike & Allie were visiting Maine and we all gathered at camp for brunch, visiting, swimming, sauna etc...

oh and the magic tricks!

Nellie 'rescues' Mike, Allie & Mike (they are hanging onto her collar and she brings them ashore)

BRA - VO!

This weekend was the Bras for the Cause auction in Pittsfield (http://www.bras4thecause.org). About 40 bras were submitted to the auction, which was a fundraiser for Breast Cancer Research. The bras were created by artists, survivors and other creative people with breasts. I bought a lamp disguised with a Bra. My sister, Emily got a bra made from buttons (she loves buttons) and my mom got a few creations, most notably the 'boobie bowl' (http://queenofthemacks.blogspot.com/).

Bras, Bras everywhere!

This is my mom's entry, Sally whose bra is filled with Succulents.... very clever.

ahhhh..... summer

4th of July weekend fun

John started his holiday weekend with a seriously good breakfast sandwich. John is the breakfast sandwich maser....

Nellie seems to want some....
There was a 4th of July gathering at camp. The rain put a damper on the fishing and swimming but the dogs don't seem to mind!
