Family Thoughts

It has been a weekend that lends itself to memories. 80 to 90 degrees F, during the day, warm lakes to swim in, Family and cousins visiting from New Brighton, St. Francis, Alberta, Winnipeg, Halifax, Tucson, Omaha, Lincoln, Rapid City, and Tanzania just doesn't sound real when I list it, but sure as ever, it happened. Found out some real important things, like who is Napoleon Dynamite, and what a firol is, (a skunk from South Africa), but whatever, I don't keep up with the real world anymore. I thought I was doing good to see Pirates of the Caribbean!
Singing around the campfire, catching fish in the early morning mists rising off Hayden Lake and being evaporated by the warming sun, having a family breakfast after coming in from fishing, with a full basket, and the warm fried potatoes, and egg bake, orange juice and coffee, toast and chokecherry jam, ummmmm. Good memories. Listening to the laughing and crying of the grandkids, though there was precious little crying, and hearing new stories about how some dads acted before they met their spouses.
It was a good weekend, and that was just Sunday night and Monday morning. There was also the sailboat ride, and the canoeing, and the sitting and visiting.
Perfect weather. Connecting weather. Sitting on the deck weather. No bugs.
So tomorrow is workaday and I am looking forward to that. What will tomorrow bring.
