In about 6 weeks it will be the 2 year anniversary of our dear friend Byrd’s passing. My family will again be visiting the beach where Greg died. I’ll post pictures. Maybe our friends in Southern California will remind us of Byrd’s anniversary next month. We lost two wonderful friends in just 6 weeks in the summer of 2008. I think we all miss them.  Nancy
