Does anyone have an umbrella?

The phrase 'when it rains, it pours' certainly pertained to us this past week. If bad things come in threes then we are set for a while! 
#1~Tony was in a car accident with his boss and 2 other passengers. Yes, he was the driver. It was a pile up and he was fortunate enough to have been following the car ahead of him not so closely. It was dark and a car 2 ahead of him swerved to miss a barricade and hole in the road, in doing so the car behind them ran into them and Tony was behind that car...he got hit very hard from the back, did I mention that his boss was in the car with him? So on and on and on in the domino effect. He and his passengers were not injured. His boss was taking photos of him being interrogated by the police, at least he had a sense of humor about it! A good lesson learned~ When you have your boss in the car, don't get into an accident.  
#2~My father was very ill this past week and transfered from the Lovell hospital to the Billings, MT hospital. He was released but still has no diagnosis. It was very hard to be so far away and not know what was going on. I hope he continues to recover and begins to become pain free.
#3~ Our oldest dog, Boomer had a tumor taken off his head on Friday.  We are awaiting those results. I took him to the vet Fri. a.m. when our puppy would not stop licking his head.  We had no idea here was a growth until we checked out why she was paying so much attention to his head. Weird! Dogs and their sense of smell is amazing. We are hoping he is ok!
On a brighter side, Tony and Brenn were able to attend a Senior pro golf tournament. These men were the ones that were successful when Tony and I were growing up, so he was thrilled. The course is right down the road from our house and we got tickets. It was a great experience for Brenn and Tony was like a little kid when he was talking about it. 
               This is a shot of the golf course. It is beautiful!

               This is the club house! Very extravagant!
