Friendship, friendship

It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect

blendship. When other friendships have

been forgot, la la da... as the song goes.

This week, we have some friends staying

with us.. we go way back.. so far back to

my ex.. So I guess because we aren't in-laws,

we are out-laws. But best of all, we are friends.

We go back about 54 years.. he was my

brother-in-law.. and of course making her

sister-in-law.. and we have remained friends

over all these years.  We seem to get together

about every 5 years or so. Sometimes meeting

at the family reunion.. but as it has been

several times,  but they go the many extra

miles to come over to see me after they see

the Washington coast family. Quite a honor,

if you ask me.

We have one of those friendships that it

doesn't matter if it is a day, 5 years or more

we start up right where we left off.

The years are starting to take their toll on

all of us.. few more aches and pains, but

the love and respect is still strong.
