Friday in Summer


I'm a teacher. It's Friday in summer. I'm in my pjs. It is noon. I've baked cookies to send to Will. I've written a Session summary for the church newsletter. I've talked on the phone.


Did I say..... I've thanked God for being so blessed. Life is definitely good for this teacher on this Friday of my summer break.

Happy Anniversary!

Our engagement picture
June 1977
Ray made the comment this morning that we had been married more years than we were single. That is true for him. As for me, that milestone hit a few years ago. Amazing!!! We have a quiet anniversary evening planned- going to one of our favorite restaurants on the Frio River House Pasture Cattle Company, in Concan. They make a mean margarita and the food is delicious. We like to sit outside on the patio. Next time you are here, we'll take you.
We have a big time planned in San Antonio next week attending the Vietnam Helicopter Pilots Association national convention. We have a room at the Marriott Rivercenter, where the convention is taking place. I have hopes of spending some time at the San Antonio museums- there are some new exhibits and new construction I haven't seen yet. It should be a fun four days. We will be in San Antonio for July 4th. That evening is the open night of the convention. I think that is because many of the people who will be attending are either active or retired military, so many of them will go to the area military bases for celebrations. The city of San Antonio has some sort of big thing on the Riverwalk that night- If we are lucky we may be able to watch from the hotel without getting out in the crowds.
So, Happy Anniversary to us!!!!
