5/25/17

True, it was inconvenient for Ethel to arrive at the community pool an hour and a half prior to opening, but, as she'd discovered the hard way, it was the only way to guarantee that she could get in line for a Sno-Cone at the snack bar and be assured that they weren't out of groovy grape flavoring!
Stewardess Gwen couldn't believe some of the big babys she had to deal with in business class, especially during return trips of men who'd been at a tool & dye convention!
It was definitely tiresome trying to get Lumpy house-trained and he had many an accident in the process. Louise tried to keep to the couch with her feet up, but Grandpa Sam finally took to wearing boots all the time.

How strange!...When I saw the first picture (before reading the caption), I thought, that looks like Ethel Merman. Then, I noticed that you named her Ethel. Coincidence???

As for poor Gwen, if this is what she had to deal with on a regular basis, I'd have quit my job a long time ago!

I probably subconsciously had a Merm/Mad Mad World moment when naming dear Ethel! ;-) Fortunately, Gwen had a tender relationship with one of the pilots that helped her unwind after a rough flight.
