End Of Summer Fun

Patsy and Bek and Jacob came down for the day. Jacob wasn't in the house five minutes before he found my glasses and did a little mugging for the camera. Well, actually, maybe it was Herman that did the mugging.

Herman and Jacob stayed home with Dad while Patsy, Bek and I went to lunch at Panera's. It's next door to Ben and Jerry's but we just passed them by without a second look, and headed for my favorite thrift shop. After the thrift shop, we rounded out the day with the Dollar Tree. Bek filled her basket with all manner of things, while Patsy and I showed discretion, only making the most discerning choices.


We then took the back roads home, along the James River. When we arrived home we were surprised to find that Jacob was neither bleeding nor vomiting like the last two times Bek left him with Herman.

Herman and Jacob then went down to the pier at Deep Creek. After returning home they found some of the best fun a boy can possibly find on a hot August day...... a hose and a nozzle are objects of endless joy.







One of the greatest lessons of life....simple pleasures are always the best. This turned out to be one of the best days of my summer.
