We had another pretty quiet day. My day began with a massage from Marci.. Diane had scheduled it for me a few weeks back after seeing some of my travel plans. She knew what all that airplane sitting does to me.. and decided to take the preemptive step of scheduling this massage for me. She’s such a  <\/span>sweetie.<\/p>\n

     <\/span>On the way to Marci’s,  <\/span>I had the opportunity to escort the mouse from 2 days ago blog posting out  <\/span>of our house\/ We’d caught the little guy I our have-a-hart trap. I wanted to make sure I released him across the river so he wasn’t likely to follow us back home. I released him at Marci’s with a small supply of food. He appeared grateful.. and told  <\/span>me with his eyes that he had no plans to return to our house.<\/p>\n

   <\/span>After my massage\/Reiki session (which was very wonderful) .. I went home and started in on assembling Gabe’s trampoline. He was due in around 5 today and we wanted the tramp set up fro Gabe to get the first bounce when he got home. As with  <\/span>all things setting up the trampoline took lots longer than expected. There were tons of conflicting instructions, lots of extra strange shaped parts and an odd assortment of miss-sized components.. All you could ever hope for  <\/span>in a days entertainment. In the end, Tim K and Max finished the last tie down just as we were picking Gabe up at the Airport.<\/p>\n

   <\/span>Diane and I met at the airport around 5:15 to pick Gabe up, He’s been in Oregon<\/st1:place><\/st1:state> since a week ago Monday. I missed him so, so, so much. He called at least once a day which helped. It was great seeing him walk out of the gate back in Burlington<\/st1:place><\/st1:city>.    <\/span>He seemed to have had a great time. We’ve been getting stories all night. It sounds like it was really wonderful  <\/span>for him.  <\/span>It was fun\/sad hearing him describe some of the things that Sam saw there last year.<\/p>\n

   <\/span>As soon as he got off the plane, he wanted to go home and bounce.. He didn’t even go inside first.. up he went on the  <\/span>trampoline.. It’s going to be really fun to have this thing. We all spent time getting the feel of it today.<\/p>\n

Max left late afternoon to go in and watch the fireworks with his friends. Around 8PM<\/st1:time>, Diane, Gabe and I decided to go in as well. We drove in through Rt. 7 and parked in a skanky old parking lot near down town. It was an easy walk.  <\/span>There were 10’s of thousands of folks down by the waterfront waiting on the fireworks.. We saw so many folks we knew. including Homer and Mary. <\/p>\n
