Finally an Update!

At the end of last month, John and Nancy came for a quick visit and as always we had an amazing time with them. We spent a day in downtown Boston and got to eat in an Italian restaurant in Little Italy by the North End. That part of town is so old that it adds to its charm. We tried to show them all of the historical places and I think we covered great part of them.

Atenas loves being a “spoiled grand-dog”. The first time Nancy walked inside the house, Atenas greeted her with kisses! I guess she remembered her granny! Quite often Nancy walked her around the field (on a leash of course) and John fed her off the table (he couldn’t resist those pitiful eyes). Atenas is a stinker and can get away with these things!

We witnessed beautiful fall colors but now we have to deal with all of the leaves on the ground. We have never raked so many leaves in our lives! We were very grateful that our neighbors helped us out with the front yard. We still have to tackle the backyard but I’m sure we’ll get it done.
