Playing Catch Up

I was just thinking today that I should take some time and catch up on the blog as it has been quite a while since I wrote in it....Tonight when I checked the E-mail I get a note jogging me about not writing on the blog from a good friend (D.S.)....So I checked and it has been too long for sure...I don't know how the time goes so quickly...I guess because we have kind of been busy as our youngest son has been down and visiting us for a couple of weeks...He had a chance to come down and hitched a ride with our grandson that lives in Temple, Tx. when he went up to Iowa for a class reunion....He came back to Temple with him and we went up there and picked him up and brought him on down here....We have had a great time showing him around the area....

I know that once in a while he must have gotten bored being around a bunch of OLD people and some of the crazy things we do...He did enjoy the cement pond up at the hall and we got to play some pool of course...He had to go to WAL-MART with his mother and see some of the eating out places in the valley....Of course we had to go to the Island to walk the beach looking for shells and such, stop at one of our favorite fish houses and pig out on fish before we came home....So it has been fun....I think we were all tired when we took him to the plane to go home yesterday...He called and said he made it home safe and sound so we could relax at last...You never know any more with these planes and travel in general...

I did get a telephone call from Don Soole the other day saying that church was going to start over at Magnolia Park next Sunday morning so we are looking forward to that...I am just kind of also looking for or hoping for some cooler weather, but the time is coming just be patient and it will be here before you know it....I will try to do better from now on writing for the blog....
