Good stuff . . . Good stuff . . .

Don't even know where to begin! Found out yesterday that son and his wife will be coming home for our Seventh Annual Horseshoe Tournament! I'm so happy I'm fit to be tied! On top of that he has recorded a YouTube video that really tops all other news. He's using the 12 string Ovation guitar that he helped his youngest sister to buy when she was about 13 years old. I'm prejudiced, naturellement, but I love everything about the video. I even got a call from the youngest because I sent her the link to the video and she got a big kick out of it also. Maybe when she and G. get here next year son and wife will also make it and then we'll have middle child and her cohorts all together for the first time in too many years. I love looking forward to sweet happenings.

Saw my younger sister Monday and we had our usual outing plus I showed her the pictures of Christa's wedding and my older brother's 50 Wedding Anniversary. We thoroughly enjoyed our precious few hours together before I had to leave to beat the traffic on 91South. Am already looking forward to seeing her again in August. Weather today is downright perfect. I'll go to Big Y, pick the beans in the garden and then figure out what I need to get the upstairs cooled and ready for "la famille qui va venir." Not at all hyped up! Hoping to get to Boston tomorrow to see Chihuly Through the Looking Glass at the MFA with my artist cousin. I'll be doing the driving using my not trusty Magellan GPS. Should be a treat! Our new Garmin won't be in until Friday but I have a pretty good idea where I'm going. The only problem may be a Red Sox game! We'll leave by 8am and hope we beat the crowds to the parking spaces!
