One of Dad’s entries on his summer To-Do list was getting the house painted. After getting his color choice approved by the homeowners’ association (don’t get me started on these little pockets of fascism), he had Darryl and Scott do the work (Darryl is brother Scott’s friend from at least high school, if not earlier) and they did a great job.

Wow! What a difference! See the original color in this entry: painting begins. I’m looking forward to seeing it later this month (and seeing Dad, too!)
Okay, finally, I put up a gallery of the photos I’ve acquired having to do with Riley and David. It’s in no special order, and some are taken by Dad, some by others, some from Diana—sorry no specific credits on this (I lost track). You can find it here: The 4th Generation: Riley and David. Please let me know if something is mis-captioned.
Lots on my mind but not enough time right now to rant.
Finally, someone tells it like it is.
