Torthorwald Village Saturday 2 September 2017 - the sun shone brightly, the scarecrow makers once again excelled themselves with their imaginative creations. Community members came from near and far to enjoy the spectacle as well as taking part in the family entertainment on the village field - bouncy castle, beat the goalie, welly throwing, the Torthorwald stocks, glitter tattoos and much more - a fantastic time was had by all.
Congratulations to all the winners and thanks to everyone who made the scarecrows, baked, donated prizes, donated food and helped out on the day.
Most of all thanks to the organisers and all the community members who came to lend their support and enjoy a great day out - it was brilliant to see so many family's there!
Today is my Mom and Dad's 58th wedding anniversary. This is not a shot from their wedding day in 1951 (those albums are at their house), but it is the oldest shot of them together from my baby books. It's very grainy given the scanning, but the sepia tones seem to help a bit. It's funny because I have several pictures of each of them separately holding me as a baby, but never together in the same pic. The back of this one says "OWU 1978" so I'm assuming that's Ohio Wesleyan where my sister, Sheri, attended college; and I'm also guessing by their dapper attire (hee-hee) that it was her commencement...but I don't know that for sure. I do know that I just love Dad's cool 70s shades and plaid pants, and I am hugely impressed by Mom's skinny-mini waistline because she was in her forties raising her fifth child, who would've been two years old at this time! She's amazing, and so is Dad... Happy Anniversary!

One of the optional assignments that Evan's 1st grade teacher posted was to make a counting collection like they do at school. So I picked through the unsorted Lego pieces and got a bowl full of tiny pieces for him to count. I dumped a couple handfuls back into the tiny pieces drawer when it looked like it was going to take him forever to finish, and he still ended up counting 204 pieces.

Count Dracula is a fictional character, the titular antagonist of Bram Stoker's 1897 Gothic horror novel Dracula. Some aspects of his character may have been inspired by the 15th century Romanian Prince, Vlad III the Impaler. Since creation by Stoker, the character has fallen into public domain and subsequently appears frequently in popular culture.
The End.

Usually I post in the order I did the cards, but here I’ll reshuffle a bit to (sort of) tell the story...

Down in the "bunker" we had to count the hits, after lowering the targets that were on tracks. Now if the guys would actually hit the targets with their UZIs :-)
n Bandra where we stay, there’s a small area with many old houses with tiled roofs. This is Runwar Village. Some of these houses are more than a century old. That is why this area has been declared a ‘heritage precinct’.
One thing that strikes anyone who comes here is the large number of crosses. We counted – on just two very small lanes, there were 23 crosses.
We were curious. We set out to find out the reason behind the crosses. Some people said it was because the area was full of Catholics. Some said to help people pray on their way to work or back. Then we met Mr John Gomes, a resident of Chapel Road. There are six crosses all a stone’s throw away from his house. He told us almost a century back, Bandra had been struck by a plague. Many people died. This place was overtaken by rats who spread the disease by biting people. “People were dying like flies, Mr Gomes told us. “We would bury someone, some back and see another person had died. The dead were sometimes carried away in cartloads. Many people packed their belongings and fled to the mountain.” Which mountain, we asked. Mt Mary, he replied. (Mt Mary is a church in Bandra situated on a little hill facing the sea). That is why people built the crosses, Mr Gomes said, to protect themselves from the plague. As a plea to Jesus to save them. Had anyone died in his family? No, he replied.
