So tired, been traveling so much. Seems like we just got back to Richland and already will be leaving for FL in a month. Weather has been cooler this summer, never making it into the 100's so the pool hasn't been used much. Over family reunion all the little kids spent much of their time in the pool but the adults just watched.

Has been a sad summer also as I lost a cousin to a heart attack, only 49 years old. Hadn't seen her in years and was looking forward to getting reacquainted at the family reunion but she passed the Monday before. On the day we were leaving for her memorial got the news that Doug's step-father had passed away. Had just seen him at the Minor-Dickinson reunion so that was good. All the grand kids but two were there as we celebrated Doug's Mom's 90Th birthday. I know they are glad that they got to see Cecil one last time and I know he really enjoyed being there and meeting all her grand kids. Last, just heard that a daughter of another cousin just passed away. Debbie was in her 20's, I believe, and had cancer since she was about eight years old. As I said it has been a sad summer. It can only get better. Things happen in threes and I've had my three....
