DAUGHTER AND GRANDCHILDREN HERE FROM TEXAS

Last Thursday my daughter Lorri along with Spencer and Aiddin started on the 1234 mile journey from Shiner Texas to Schererville, Indiana. They arrived late afternoon on Friday. Since then the household has been very busy since my two granddaughters Angelica and Delaney are also here. I'm glad they are here because it takes my mind off of my dog Mandy, passing away on Tuesday night. Since they arrived we have been on the go, either going out to eat, going to the park, water park and fishing. There is a lake behind my home and the kids are thrilled by catching good sized bass. We don't keep them. They throw them back and who knows maybe they keep catching the same fish over and over. At any rate they are having a good time. We have a BBQ planned at my house for the 4th with my son and his family along with my other daughter and her family. Lorri stopped along the way at Boomtown and bought a good amount of fireworks which we will shoot off at night. Monday we are going to the camper and stay about a week and return for some birthday parties. I will write about what goes on during that period. Until then, have a good 4th of the July and be safe.
