Jessica and Mollie. Jess has decided that, since she now lives in Oregon, she should learn to forage for wild berries. What could go wrong? I helped. I am still alive.

Mollie, and what’s-his-name on the right. Oh, and half of that other guy on the other side.

Okay, fine, her boyfriend’s name is Ben.

And they said Jessica can’t climb a tree!

They do let me hang around with them now and then. But there are a lot of rules.

But mostly, they are lost in their own little love bubbles.

I am just kidding. I love my son-in-law, Jason, and that Ben guy… my boyfriend-in-law?

My daughters are like me when it comes to animals.

That is how we ended up at a place where you can meet cats to adopt, on our very first day in Portland, out of all the stuff we could have done.
