| How many men does it take to set up a small tent. . . |
Monday 7/3. JB's brothers, sister-in-law and nephew arrived about 11:30 am, bringing with them the items for us from JB's Mother. An emotional experience, but also a good one. As usual, we talked a lot, laughed a lot, hiked a bit, ate too much and stayed up too late. JB's next oldest brother is quite the photographer and wanted to get some shots of the stars, but the moon was too bright. He did manage to get some other pictures, which we are anxious to see.
JB's sister-in-law rode down with me to do the evening watering and feeding. It is actually easier to drive the ATV with a little more weight on it.
Our highest temp for the holiday weekend was 83, but with a pleasant breeze, so it wasn't uncomfortable. However, it was much hotter down at Larry and Elsie's in the evening when I went to water. In the morning I had to wear a hoodie and vest for the cool air along our road. Took them off when I got down, though.
Tuesday 7/4. It was 58 and mostly clear this morning. Everyone was up having coffee when I left just before 8:00 am to go water and feed the cats for the last time. When I got back, breakfast was over but I had coffee and banana bread.
More talking and walking, laughing and eating until they finally had to leave around 2:30 pm. There was a big empty spot when they left, but good memories, just like when his other nephew and girlfriend left Sunday afternoon. They fell in love with Rose Camp and will definitely be up again and again.
Larry and Elsie drove up this evening to bring us two large trout they caught and take back their ATV. They caught lots of fish and just had an all-around good time with their grandson.
Our high for the day was 78.
Wednesday 7/5. It is 64 with clear skies this morning. Going to be splitting wood today and going Down There tomorrow for JB's MRI.
Thought for the day: Minds are like parachutes. They function only when open.
