Time To Get The Heck Out of Dodge

September 6, 2013

Last Saturday we celebrated Dink's 90th birthday in grand style with darn near all of the family we have. It was a good time; the best thing about being 90 is that you get to open the same presents over and over again. Yes I know.............going to hell for yet another one, but it was funny. Missed Jackson. 

And we had the grandchildren here all weekend. They were a ton of fun, but when they left we both took long naps, followed by our first kayak trip of the year. Figured that would be a great way to celebrate the end of summer: dust off the kayak and do a lap around the creek. 

Odd that the photographer got all these kids to act as though they liked each other, even if it was only for a quick snapshot. We didn't see this serenity very often, but then again they're kids and we're not supposed to see that side of them...................I guess. 

Oh yes, time to leave town for a while. I have too many irons in the proverbial fire, we're planning the 2013 Stewardship program so I'd better duck. Cleveland next week, Philadelphia the week after that. Probably won't have much time to use that new boat...................whaaaaaaaaaaaat?
