So long summer, I hardly
knew where the time went.
It seemed like I was
just starting plants to put in the ground..
And here we are… the end
of August… only 2 days left.
End of summer… fall
knocking on our door.
We will be very busy
putting August to bed… We have
our company here.. the
beginning of them.. more arriving
tomorrow..
And then we begin… the P
day will be here Saturday…
Paint the truck… a long
time coming… the King is excited.
He has picked out the
color… ROOT BEER with sparkles in
It… He picks that
tomorrow.
Tomorrow night.. we
feast.. bar-b-que ribs is the menu, with
a few side dishes… so it
will be good food, good times, and
usually some of the conversations
start out with.. “Do you
remember this… or
remember when we did this and Mom
didn’t know”.. And the
looks on their faces when I tell them,
oh, yea, I knew. It just wasn’t bad enough to scream at you.
A parent picks their
battles…
And once in a while,
they actually do have one I didn’t know
about.
Then Saturday… the big
day… starting with painting in the morning. 3 sons, and the King
will hole up in the wrapped garage… no one allowed in once they
start… because dust will come in too.. So we will hear paint
guns, and fans going…
The afternoon, will
start around 3pm.. where we all shift out of town… for part 2… the
celebration of 50 wonderful years…..
(1963 must have been a
great year… 3 family members and
about 4 friends
celebrated this year)….
My wonderful son-in-law will have 3 of my sons
and many, many friends,and more family, who will help him
celebrate. And we will party on thru the night… good
food, good times… dancing… Yep, this will be a great day to end a
wonderful day…
Sunday… will be recoup
day… start to pack things up…. And our son’s will be
heading out… safely home…
Yep, August we will do
you proud, we will wind you down.. in high style…
