First..... sorry it's been so long since my last post. Much has been happening!
Golfer and I were in Washington, D.C. visiting friends when we got word that my sister's husband had passed away. He had been quite ill and was in declining health. It was sad, but we're glad he's not suffering any longer. Golfer scrambled around and found me a flight to Ohio and I got there for the funeral. Visited with everyone and came home last Tuesday. Then I had to scramble around to catch up at work and get everything ready for our vacation.
We are now in Myrtle Beach. Golfer and his buddies will be playing in the Retired Military Golf Classic this week. Bikini, Brief, Boxer and Bloomer are here for a few days. It's great to see them. Boxer and Bloomer are getting so big! And they have been soooooooo good! We've played in the pools and they've built sand castles. They've gone round and round the lazy river at the water park. We've gone out to dinner with our friends and the kids have been on their best behavior.
Memorial Day weekend is also the time of the Atlantic Beach Bikefest. Usually, the hotel where we stay is overcrowded, loud and noisy, and there are no parking places, and long lines everywhere for a few days. We have been pleasantly surprised this year. Myrtle Beach has passed some new laws and they are being enforced. Such things as restricted noise levels and parking restrictions, helmet laws, etc. The bikers have gone back to Atlantic Beach and the paper says they had a good time. The rest of us have enjoyed our visits to Myrtle Beach this time, too!
In other news, Golfer and I attended an excellent performance of "Wicked" at Chrysler Hall last week. It was wonderful! I highly recommend it. For those of you not familiar, "Wicked" is the story of the Wicked Witch of the West from the Wizard of Oz. You know, she didn't really start out as wicked. Tolerance of things different is a good thing.
That's about it from here for now. Stay safe!
