My Cousin Shirley

This picture (taken Monday at the Springfield, Oregon Carl's Jr. restaurant) is of: My cousin Shirley St.Clair, Max, and me. Notice Shirley is wearing a t-shirt we bought for her in Palm Springs.

The trip to Oregon centered around taking an antique icebox to Shirley and picking up a chair for Max. Shirley was kind enough to entrust her late Mother's "lift" chair to us. This will help Max get out of his chair when I am not around to help him.

We left home Sunday afternoon, with an appointment in Shoreline, Washington at 2:00 p.m. to pick-up the antique icebox from another cousin of Shirley's. The icebox was Shirley's mother's mother's and she has very fond memories of this icebox from her childhood.

We stayed in Tigard, Oregon on Sunday night then headed to Springfield Monday morning to deliver the icebox. We went out to lunch with Shirley, had a nice chat, then headed over to Redmond, Oregon to visit our friends Kathy and Jim.

The bad news is we picked the hottest days of the year to take this excursion. Whew!

Stay tuned...
Carol
