Sunday, June 2, 2024 Our music friend, Gary, married Julie about five years ago, which was lovely. They are a delightful couple. Alexander was soooo confused after that happened, because suddenly we had two Gary and Julies. The first Gary was my very first new friend in college, and he and his wife, Julie, were

Saturday, June 1, 2024 The car lady said stay in the right two lanes. Then as we passed a right exit, she said take the left exit 2L. I mean, she’s usually pretty good. She knows her stuff, but that was a total goof. We continued toward Memphis or some such place we were not

Monday, May 27, 2024 We were only gone 56 hours, but it felt like a great vacation. We had fun driving time with Alexander, water park time with Alexander, and dinner time with Alexander, then a whole second vacation with Maren and family. The rain stopped today and we were able to get outside to

Sunday, May 26, 2024 What a great day. Maren and Rob and the kids arrived about 11:30am to join us for a bit of water sliding and wave pooling. Every good thing is made better by having friends join you. We got $175 in Moose Money (local currency) for going to a timeshare thing. Alexander

Saturday, May 25, 2024 We made a reservation for a two bedroom room in the Dells for a weekend family getaway, but Benjamin and Sean couldn’t come. We scooped Alexander up (so his car was at his house) and set off on our way about noon. Why so late? I don’t know. For some reason,
