WOnderfully quiet and restful day.. much differnt than the day I would have had gettign to my reunioun in Tx.. which would have been fun,// but nothing could have been more fun than hanging out here and relaxing 1

one very meaningful thing we did today as to go to a small gathering at lou and Cathy for Cathy’s dad Bill. Bill died back in Decmber.. The family got together today to inern his ashes and ddicate a bench in the Eathan Allen Homestead. 

 

Afterwards they all came back to Cathy and Lous for lunch .. We met up with them there. Bill and his wife Ann were/are  long time friends of ours too. It was wodnerful seeing all the great pictures of Bill.. He was a sweet man.. literally.. he was a candy maker… he made ice cream, fudge, toffee.. .. and he had the wonderful personality to match 

 

it was great seeing all of Cathy’s relatives, many of whom we’ve met over the years.. Id not remember this one, though  🙂 

 

ok. heading to Boston very early tomorrow.. so signing off now

note all, note sam

Hot and steamy day here. Our good friends Kate and Steve are here which is really nice. 

I was able to take several hours off this afternoon to go with them on the Ferry over to Essex NY for a late lunch. It was really nice and relaxing being out on the Lake .. The breeze helped with the heat. 

 

 

Essex is a cute little town 

 

we had lunch at the Old DOck.. havent done that in years.. 

we had fun on the ride back 

I’ve more than made up for the time off today.. It’s 1 AM and I just finished work..
