Blogger *%#*!

 I have scheduled my Mimi Camp postsfor the next few days, starting tomorrow. 

I have messaged Blogger several times about my Blog List not showing current and new posts.  I like to pull up my page during the day around other activities so I can keep up.  I have a lot of things scheduled the next few days and I am apologizing in advance if I can't come and visit you.  I'm sorry.

Missing

*THEY FOUND HER*

After 4 1/2 hours, she was located inside an RV only 2 blocks from our street.  I am not sure yet if the RV was checked previously. They have called EMS to check her out. 

I am so relieved. I was so afraid that she had come to harm in the woods or in the river. Thank you for thinking about her.

There is a complex of condominiums at the end of my street. They are all one story triplexes with two bedrooms, two baths, a large living space, two car garage, and a screened in back porch that overlooks the woods. I have friends who live in some of the units. 

We went out to our egg farm this morning and saw a police car on my street when we came home. We assumed they were watching the traffic since we are the detour for road construction. 

A woman with dementia got away from her husband and left her condo. This is now three hours ago.  

The entire police force and fire force are out looking. They have a search plane and a helicopter and drones. Half of town is driving around trying to find her.  They have dogs and golf carts.  

They have searched all the rivers and creeks. They have put alerts on phones, social media and the tv.  We have gotten pictures.  

My good friend is a neighbor and has told me she does go in other houses that are not her own. I am holding on to that. 

Everyone has walked the neighborhoods and the trails. They have searched the barns at the fairgrounds.

It has been 3 hours.  And now we are under a thunderstorm watch and it is raining.  I am so afraid for her.  

They may have found some clothing and are bringing in a fresh dog. A detective is sheltering the clothing.  

My son called and we reviewed our cameras. No sign of her. Everyone in town is reviewing security cameras.  No one has seen her. 

She is 79 years old and 5'1". She was wearing a white shirt and pink capris.  They still haven't found her. 

Our school bus should be here shortly.  It has been 3 1/2 hours.  I need to go smile and help decorate after school cookies. 

Please pray for Jenn.

Panoramic view from my kitchen counter on Monday night showing that evening's pepper picking. 

He pulled the dying cucumbers, there are a few more tiny tomatoes and some more yellow squash. But there are more peppers! 

My middle son just bought a new freezer and he said he would take the peppers! Yay!

The Third Post about the Anniversary

The third and final anniversary post. Despite telling my children this was not necessary, they decided to have a party. I did convince them that no extra guests were required. I was picturing a BBQ at my youngest daughter's house which was made for parties for people with children. Instead they booked the restaurant that holds the tea parties.  


For decorations they had their children break and enter my home and steal items. This is from my security tape (which Mr Merry reviews). It says Shhhh, don't tell mimi.)


They took photos off the wall and searched and found our wedding album.



The food was lovely. They had salad, Cornish game hens, lasagna, a vegetable mix and mashed potatoes. 



Almost everyone could come. One grandchild was on the other side of the state at college and one was working and then had a varsity soccer game.

They had a copy made of the middle layer of our wedding cake.

They made us play a game with wipe off boards. We failed miserably. 

My oldest granddaughter made a painting of our recent family photo.


Her cousins were quite impressed! 


The crew. 

This is the official end of the 50th Anniversary celebration.
