Yeah, they are ‘closing shop’ at the end of September. But as many of you know, they are affiliated with Flickr which is a paid service. I told Yahoo to go ahead and move all 1,600 photos (who knew?) over to Flickr. I think I can afford $2 a month for the upkeep. It’s nice to know I have a safe place on the web too. And the photo quality vs. Yahoo is like night and day. I was up late last night browsing some of my photos that I haven’t seen in a clear light for a while.

It’s a hot one in PA today. I haven’t been outside except in my robe at 12:30 (ok, I wanted to take a shower) as Veronica’s Neighborhood Round Robin came in the mail from Rachael today. I am the last one to stitch on it from our group. It’s really charming. I will be looking for the perfect addition. I’m thinking ‘store’ as Carol has a store opposite of where I will be stitching.

Here’s a coincidence for you-last week before the NYC trip, Sean rented Bobby. It was about Robert F. Kennedy in an indirect way-it told of the day and night leading up to his assassination at the hotel in California. I didn’t remember (I was 8 at the time) that 6 people got shot in the kitchen that night. So a few days later there we are sitting in St. Patrick’s Cathedral where RFK’s funeral took place. I’ve also been to his graveside at Arlington Cemetery in Washington, DC that is marked by a simple white cross. I think he really could have made a different in this country.

In my Vod:Pod I have a recording by the Leo Reisman orchestra who my great uncle Frank played trumpet with. Not sure if he is on this actual recording-the Merry Widow Waltz, but he was on the soundtrack of Paper Moon. Why the interest? Since Barbara is having twins, I told her about Frank and his brother being twins.
