Of Campfires and Reunions

For those of us with decaying brains and fading memory, computers can be a blessing. With a few easy mouse clicks we are able to peek back into the past. I had cause to peruse some old blogs today; it was a nice trip which I should think to make more often. So, when I was looking for a photo for today's post, I also slipped into the past: not long past, just last June, with the proviso that the grandkids would not be the subject for a change.

I had forgotten for the time being that the A Team had come home for a brief visit and that after spending some time here, we had also met for a brief visit at the cottage. We sat by the campfire that night, chatted and experimented with a few night photos.

This one, two blended photos really, is of my daughter, Althegal and the campfire.

The A Team will be coming home again near the end of August, and we will again convene at the cottage with as many family members as possible. I think we're all looking forward to it. I know I am.

Checking In

About a week ago, I was surprised at how often I had been posting because even when I've been a frequent poster, I have seldom been a daily poster. However, for a while there, I was on quite a run of posting on almost every day. But as of today it's been a week since I last updated this blog of mine. Things do get busy around this time of year. Don't they?

So, I'm basically just dropping by for a quick hello, for I've not really anything to say. I know that there are hordes of you who will opine that I never do [have anything to say]; nevertheless ...

I'll try to get back here in a few days, but I'll leave you with a picture of Nikkie Dee (up top) for now; the little narcissist loves to ham it up in the mirror. Any mirror will do, but the bathroom one give here a full, clear view, so it's particularly popular with her.

The A Team has been in Ontario since Monday and will wend their way here late Thursday night, and they'll stay until Christmas. Yay! For those who are newish or don't remember, here's a photo. What a couple of crazy kids!
