Remembering My Dad

Photo by Fabian Bachrach

I will be taking several days off.  It will be one year since

my Daddy's passing this coming Saturday.  It's been a tough

year for both me and for my Mom.  Bentley and I will be back

sometime next week.  Thank you to all who follow us and are

kind enough to leave sweet comments.

Love,

Susan and Bentley

PS: For those of you who don't know, Fabian Bachrach was 

the photographer who took the famous photo of JFK when he was a

young Senator from the state on Massachusetts.  It was the photo that was used

as the official presidential photo.  Daddy was lucky enough to sit for
a portrait by this iconic photographer.  It is my Mom's favorite
photo of him. Mr Bachrach died in February of 2010.

A Sad Day in Our History

September 11, 2010 is a day few of us will ever forget. Approximately 2996 lives were lost on that day when our nation was attacked. How many tears were shed on that day and how many tears have been shed since for loved ones who were lost?

In honor of those who lost their lives, I dedicate this post to their memory. I believe that Beverly and others will be posting special tributes as well. Please no compliments on this post. If you would like to share your feelings about this tragic event, I am happy to read them. I love this country so very much. I never want to see this happen to our nation again.

Love,

Susan and Bentley

Welcome To My Cottage

Welcome to Ash Tree Cottage where I believe that all things are possible. The impossible may take a wee bit longer. When I walk through the door of my cottage, it is not only a refuge from the worries of the world, it is also a nurturing haven created just to my liking. I share this cottage with a wonderful, understanding husband, and a darling little dog. I hope that you will stop by often.
