Chester

Chester Sue was found dead on County Home Rd. in front of her home on November 11th, 2009 early in the morning by her adopted people Gladdin and Deb. She entered their hearts and lives one fall day in 2003, after charming Deb and Gladdin while they were cleaning their garage. She was a stray that had been injured on the highway and needed a helping hand. She was a very special cat, that had used up more than her allotted 9 lives; a very loving kitty that was as mischievous as she was charming. She will be deeply missed by her people.

Gladdin and Chester napping

Always the gentle kitty, after all the pain she suffered in her life; never took a swipe or nip at anyone, even getting prodded and poked by the vet

All worn out, sleeping by Snuggles



The good Lord gave us this sweet pet for a time, and I thank Him for all the fun times we had with her.

this is one of the plants Gladdin planted in our yard. It is so pretty, I want more of them now that I see all the monarchs coming to visit it. Heaven must be full of them.

Sigourney sunset

I got a new camera a few months ago so that I could keep it in my purse for shots like this. The Lord has given us such beautiful surroundings, make sure you take time to smell the roses.

The other Gladdin

Bet you didn't know Gladdin had a multiple personality. Yep, Gladdin Grover, Bert Grover, or Albert. Depends on where he is as to which personality comes out. I've always know him as Gladdin. But go down south and Bert comes out. Sometimes Albert shows up too. First time I was with Gladdin and Bert came out, I was confused. I asked him, "what do I call you? Albert, Albert Gladdin, or Bert?" Well, whether he's Albert, Gladdin or Bert he is still the same old easy going guy. He said I could call him anything. So I call him Sue.



This is Nona, Bert's sister. She lives in Salt Lake City.
Nona wanted to come out for their mother's 95th birthday. We celebrated it August 19th, it was a great gift to mother to see all of the children together.


This is Bert, Nona and Chris, Nona's boyfriend; in our back yard.

Here they are all relaxing after a big breakfast.




They could spend only one night with us, and then had to head down to Sigourney to visit the rest of the family. Their dog angel was ready to hit the road.

What a nice dog she is. So mellow and sweet.

Green Acres

Farm living is the life for me! We rent out 11 acres to a farmer, this year we get to look out our back windows and see corn. Beautiful. We don't live very far from the Marion airport, so frequently we might hear an airplane but it isn't anything bothersome. Gladdin was outside a few days ago and came in and said come look! So I went out to see a plane crop dusting the corn... zoom! I ran in to get the camera, got some great photos, and cheap thrills. I admit I am easily amused but hey! it was pretty cool for a city girl.
