Our original plans included a trip to Webster, but unfortunately Edie had to work. In the end this vacation ended up being largely a "stay-cation". So, here are some highlights from our past week going from youngest to oldest.
- Tiger - Had lots of company!! It's nice that Tiger enjoys attention from everyone. Sterling was one of his more frequent visitors this week. As a general update - Tiger is now very happy with his kitty bed, placed in the upstairs hallway.
- Brock - Especially enjoyed overnight at Great Wolf Lodge, the Pocono water park resort. Got to see the newest "Madagascar" movie. You also had fun with friends Ben at Hickory Run Park, and Matthew at Frances Slocum Park. Became somewhat ill after going on rides with Ben at the Forty Fort 125th Anniversary carnival. Spent quite a bit of car time with your DVD player, watching Hogan's Heroes exclusively. When home, played the Play Station 3 game The Elder Scrolls, Skyrim.
- Sasha - Liked Great Wolf Lodge, in particular pizza which he had for dinner and then breakfast the next morning. Spent some happy hours tying flies, as evidenced by the computer table & surrounding rug (assorted wires, threads, feathers, and other fluffy items are piling up, and the keyboard needs compressed-air cleaning). Sasha, you spent time with friends Steven and Gage, and went fishing to favorite spots - Harvey's Creek, as well as Fishing Creek and Bowman's Creek with Dad.
- Mom - Did not think about Prudential, or at least not much. I enjoyed the two of you, appreciate very much that you got along well most of the week, started my summer tan, got to bake a little (blueberry pie, brownies), but thankfully did not spend too much time in the kitchen. You have both been getting over nasty chest colds, and I hope we are almost done with coughing spells and albuterol treatments.
- Steve - Went to the doctor for an infected insect bite on his back ('Roids, man!). Installed new anti-virus software on our computer and helped fix cable TV problems. Tolerated Brock eating chicken wings at Uncle Buck's BBQ Pit in Plymouth. Showed us around the 4H camp at Hickory Run Park where he worked during high school, took lovely pictures of the park and all of us (his specialty), and took apart water guns upon our return to make sure lake water did not ruin them.
And guess what, we have another vacation coming up next month! Am looking forward to fun at the beach in Delaware.
