Happy Season

 This has been a happy season of my life.  Few appointments-enjoying retirement life with Bob. Together we have so much fun doing everyday things.

Fall

 

October is almost over yet the weather is still summer-like. We may be in a drought, yet the warm temperatures and beautiful skies were back drops to our afternoons on the deck and rides on West Virginia back roads throughout. It was great weather for a visit from Hank while Chris traveled to scenic Vermont.

Good Place

 

When he stopped at Biggies for lunch, Bob said "See, I take you all the good places".  Thanks for taking me all the good places.  Bob's 70th birthday. (Black and white photo from the 1970s).

48 Fun

Our wedding anniversary was marked by taking an overnight trip to Winchester, Virginia.  Bob and I enjoyed beautiful landscape and home-style cooking there with orchard fruit and artisan baked goods to take home.  So happy to spend those 48 years with him.

Uncle Buck

 

A young buck deer decided to spend the summer in our yard along with two does and their fawns. He became "Uncle Buck" to the smaller fawn, which followed him everywhere.

Happiest

 Bob and I are happiest when we see or hear from our kids. We so enjoyed our time with Greg and Michelle when they visited the states. Morgantown is their childhood home. We took scenic rides to Frostburg, Grantsville, Yoghiogheny Dam and to Oakland. We enjoyed eating at the Princess, Englanders, and home where we had cheese, charcuterie and Mom’s stuffed flank steak. We loved our coffee breaks at Eureka, on Rt. 40 Near Ohiopyle and twice at Krispy Kreme. The kids caught lots of Pokémon. Bob and kids put together a 500 piece camera puzzle in two hours, over the course of 2 days.

71 at 71

 

The class of 1971 held their 53rd high school reunion in 2024, when we were 71 years of age.

So nice to see old friends from childhood-Connie Stephens, Steve Newcomb, Eva Clark and Linda Moorehead.

It was especially nice to see Janice Metz, Brenda Titchnell and Timmie Anne Gilmore (as I had not seen them for years.)
