Sam had a great time on his vacation with Grandma and Grandpa. He loves to feed the rainbow trout and he also loves to get vanilla ice cream as a special treat. We were so proud of his behavior and he really managed not to get too homesick from Wed. through Friday. It was great to have a break in the weather. Sorry I didn't take any pictures of the finished patio...but it looks great. It now gives us room to have our table and four chairs and still have room to walk around.
We came home to two sad things....one good friend was diagnosed with cancer and the son of one of Mike's teaching friends, died on a hike in Colorado. The family was all out in Colorado for the youngest girls wedding. It is a heart breaker...he was only 31 and a fantastic chef over on the Plaza. He leaves behind a two year old daughter... the services will be Monday.
