Reunion today.......

......if it's not rained out.

Actually, it's not a formal reunion, but hopefully, the four brothers that I'm in contact with, and some of their grown kids and their little grandkids will be joining me at the river, at my brother's camp. He has a neat little cabin on stilts, and stays down there during the summer, with his wife, who works at a school cafeteria and has the summers off. He drives into work from there, working 11 hour days at construction in the heat. They've made a beautiful place there, and he likes to cook in a big open kettle for everybody. I'm taking the watermelon, at Zoe's suggestion, and some deviled eggs.
There's a grey, cloudy sky this morning, though, and thunderstorms predicted for the afternoon. When it rains a bit, their road floods, and I don't want to try to drive my jeep out of 4 feet of water, like they had to recently. So, we'll just cook the eggs, and see what develops. In the meantime, the kids got hula hoops yesterday, and wiggling them around their hips is the LAST thing they're doing. We're chasing hoops rolling down the road, and jumping hoops and throwing them around a target ! Lots of fun here.





By the way, my flowers have finally made a grand show............and we picked and ate one red tomato !
