More information about the plane crash
There's been quite a lot of press and speculation about what went wrong with the plane that Roberta died in. Both victims died of freshwater drowning, but there's a lot of speculation about why the plane crashed.
The other sad thing about this crash is how many people were at the Stehekin boat landing and witnessed the crash. People responded quickly to try to help rescue Roberta, and those brave souls are now second-guessing that they didn't do enough. That always happens in these tragic circumstances. I'm sure, without knowing what exactly happened, that everyone did all they could.

My Aunt Roberta
Tragic news to report from Cafeliz - my Aunt Roberta died in an airplane mishap over the weekend. Read about it here.
We think the services will probably be held on Friday in the town of Chelan, but we're not sure yet about the details. She was well-loved and will be sorely missed by everyone. Tributes to her and Dr. Stifter, who died alongside her while he was trying to unbuckle her seatbelt, are posted on the Wenatchee newspaper website here.

New Family Member
David and I are in love with our latest family member, Fergie.
We rescued Fergie from a shelter - well, from two shelters really.
I first saw Fergie at the Oregon Humane Society - she was in isolation because she was snapping and growling at everybody and seemed in bad shape. Because she wasn't doing well there, they moved her to a second shelter in Clackamas County where I ran into her again. This time she licked David and me all over and charmed us with her old lady eyes.
She is 12 years old, Jack Russell Terrier, has a few medical problems, but is full of love now that she's in a home environment. She doesn't bother about the cat, but Lucy is not happy with her new sibling. We hear that may change, but we're not forcing anything. Stand by!
