2008 Memorial Day Weekend

After more that two years all the members of the Parma family had the opportunity to spend time together!
It was the Memorial Day weekend, and it was all at the same time, including some of the spouses and "Bria".
It was a glorious weekend, a memorable one, and one that came about almost by chance,at the last minute.

And here am I, as I said, I do not come out very well on camera!



I had a two week vacation and I really needed it!
I visited my five dear aunts, two cousins and a few friends.
I did not hear any new joke but, besides that, everything was wonderful!
I will miss it.

Cleveland Saturday Snowstorm

Today it was incredible, the worst snow storm of the year, probably of the decade. Just about everything was closed. The city of Parma was closed to traffic except for emergency vehicles. I took a little tour with my van, the streets were full of stranded vehicles. A lady beeped me and asked me if I could find some snow plow to let her out of her car. I barely made it back to the garage because all the drives were blocked by stranded vehicles but one.
