Saturday Event

What a great day. We met my brother Gary and sister-in-law Melinda from Charles City along with their girls, their hubbies, their kids. Us and girls and hubbies and kids. We met at Comfort Suites in Cedar Falls - the kids could swim, plus other activities. We had a blast. Silliness along with good talks. Games, food (lots of food). Just a sweet sweet time.
(Note to Kathy): Gary asked me about you. At the end of that conversation he said - in typical Gary style and referring to Doug, "The lucky stiff - he's having a great time with Jesus, and I bet he's already met Bill." He's the only person I know that still uses that expression "lucky stiff" from back in the 50's or 60's?!
We drove home in somewhat treacherous road conditions, but all made it safe and sound. The whole day was a huge blessing. Thank you, praise you, Lord.
