Well, we are getting back into the school routine. Andy is still loving Mrs. Cabaniss. And Emily is adjusting to High School. So far things are going pretty well.
So, now that there is some time and distance between me and New Mexico, I have to admit, there were some fun times. Like Don commented, we watched awesome meteor showers. And the stars were beautiful. The Milky Way was so vivid. And the weather was outstanding. It would warm up to 82 degrees, then start cooling off very quickly. It was always cool enough for a campfire at night. We played Mexican Train, and taught Andy how to play Crazy Eights. Hopefully, we built some memories that our children won't soon forget.
Now we get to start packing for our annual pilgrimmage to Tushka Homma in South East Oklahoma for the Choctaw Labor Day Festival. This is always fun, and everyone in our family goes. There are always great concerts there. Charlie Daniels Band is going to be there this year, and Michael W. Smith. The worst thing about it is the heat. Wouldn't it be great if it cooled off? It usually always rains on us at some point. That is usually a good thing. And this is the one place that we go where there is no cell service and I don't care.....because everyone that I would call is right there with me! Well, with the exception of Don's mom and dad.
That's about it for me for now!

At times routines can be boring - but for the most part they keep us grounded. And keeps our blood pressure in check!
Have a great time on the Labor Day trek!
You taught me Gin Rummy.. Do you remember that? I remember that you taught me, and we were on the sofa in your living room, but I don't remember exactly how to play. Maybe you'll have to teach me again sometime.
I missed the meteor shower. I SO LOVE watching it every August, but I missed it this year. Stupid pledge drive, messing up my life.
