Federal Consultant

Case has now become a consultant for United States Government vehicles.

What happened was the substitute letter carrier Amanda got a flat tire on the road to our house.  She took a chance that someone would be home and have an "air hose" so she drove our quarter-mile lane.  Yes, we were home.  Yes, Case could definitely handle the situation.  Little did she know that she couldn't have stopped at a better place.  (We are 1 of 3 mail stops on our 3 mile road so I guess it was 1/3 of a chance that she would stop here.)  A sharp, pointed rock punctured her front passenger tire.  The spare was needed so she unloaded her entire trunk of a Chevy Impala full of packages for folks on her route to get to the spare.  While Case changed the tire, she loaded the trunk back up.  Then she was on her way giving many thanks.

And that is why Case is now a Federal Consultant.

Fun in the Northwoods...

Kata

My 3 1/2 year old granddaughter and I have a special connection.  All is right with the world when she and her Grammie are together.  As a Grandparent I can be unbiased and say that Kata is perfect in every way.  A favorite trait is her sense of humor which she has had for a long time.  When I interact with Alek with the "Alek is SO big" and raising of my arms, Alek laughs.  Then Kata says quietly "Alek is SO small."  Then I laugh.  That is really funny.

 
Kata and Dzia Dzia (Polish for grandpa) are decorating a lamb cake on Easter.
