Lemons into Lemonade!

I know I have been away for a spell...chasing around things that have to be done when attempting to rebuild. It's a nasty job.

I want to share a most wonderful thing that has recently happened and maybe some read about it last weeks in DB. 20 wonderful children in La Verne, ages 3 to 15, organized and held a "Lemonade" stand last Saturday. They did this to raise funds for the 2 families that lost their homes in the fire on 7/ll.

Now kids today just don't get enough applause or recognition when they do something so wonderful. These super children raised over $1,000...can you imagine that? I have tears in my eyes again when I think of this awesome feat.

I have called both City Council offices in La Verne and also Pomona in hopes that someone will pick up the ball and perhaps recognize them for their superior act of kindness.

On a more somber note...our black Scottie is missing. And someone here has her. They called Larry, phone number was on her tag, asking for a reward...but before we could make arrangements to pick her up they hung up. It was a blocked number and therefore a deadend. I am devastated that someone would be so cruel and not return her. So...it is a breed of dog not often seen in these parts..so please keep eyes out for her..we miss her and need her back. This happened on 8/18 and we have never had a call back. She can't be far, as she had been in the yard 15 minutes earlier.

Can you post a picture of your dog or a generic picture of the breed?
