We had a great time with our Chicago friends, and on last Thursday we drove to the seashore, had a picnic and saw a lighthouse. We all got along in the car, and were highly compatible the long day. Their daughter had a plan, and we happily followed it. The weather was beautiful, except for gale level winds at the lighthouse, but even that was kind of fun. We were all exhausted after, but it was good tiredness.
On Saturday night we celebrated with friends their 50th wedding anniversary, and I cried throughout the little ceremony they wrote for each other. Their two sons, daughters-in-law, and four grandchildren were there, and it was so joyous and fun. We had great food, danced, and were the last out the door. Even the 100o heat didn't slow us down. We were out on the deck, watching the sunset, meeting their friends, and laughing at the kids dancing with those light necklaces. Very sweet.
So, this week is quieter, and I appreciate that, but there is still a happy glow remembering all the fun last week, capped by a baseball game for Father's Day. Yeah, we lost, but just barely, and the tacos and peanuts were perfect.
