There are a bunch of options for bluegrass in the D this weekend. After careful consideration, Papa and I have decieded to head down to the Huron Valley Eagles and see B0 and John and ‘em. We’ve seen Bo sing quite a bit, but this will be the first time we’ve seen this group. Bo [...]

We had a nice visit with M-in-L over the weekend, and ate some good food. She’s been a little under the weather, but seems to be improving. Since her back has been bothering her, I helped out a little with some chores. Did me good to think I might be helping a little. We stopped [...]

We bought this house sixteen or seventeen years ago when we came to the Detroit area. At that time, D1 was married and living “up north”, D2 was beginning her last year of high school, and D3 was a freshman in high school. We had a house in our old home town that we hadn’t [...]

Step-Dad is moving Saturday, to a new place he bought near his son’s home. He asked me to come over yesterday, to look at some things he had set aside as he packed. My step brother is thrilled, I could tell when I talked to him. Excited, glad to have his Dad coming home, so [...]

We’re off this morning, headed south. We’re staying just south of Knoxville, Tennessee tonight, and then headed to Atlanta Sunday. Just to entertain you, here is what our van looked like, in comparison to the snow at M-in-L’s house over Christmas. In all fairness, our nephew had just shoveled the roof off, so it wasn’t [...]

GS1 flew out of here yesterday. Sometime today he flies to his new duty station in Japan on a military transport. Folks, this was much harder than any time in the past. He’ll be there two+ years, and the odds of Papa and I traveling that far are very limited. GS1 managed to finish his [...]

We had a wonderful weekend, seeing our little grandchildren and enjoying an early family Christmas celebration. We were missing GS2, who stayed home for his basketball practice, and Step-Dad, who had a cold. The kids received several gifts, and it was hard to tell which was the biggest hit. The most fun for the spectators [...]

We had a great weekend. I met D2 and retrieved GS3, GD1 and GD2 Thursday afternoon. They were fun to have around. In their words, not mine, we “took a day off” on Friday. They were here becasue there was no school, and they enjoyed it. Friday night D3 was in charge, and Papa and [...]
