Inspired by a visit from one from the west (who actually thought it was cold here- how soon they forget!) we had a gathering of the clan to celebrate the birthdate of the patriarch. It was a come and go dinner. Lots of food, presents and a span of over 80 years between the youngest and the oldest.
Some gifts included apparel and odds 'n ends for the drives on the Florida golf cart. Note the fingerless gloves! The walkie talkies were the biggest hit. Now if only the range stretched from here to Florida.
The man of the hour had lots of help opening presents. The young man's true colours came through. He must have his grandfather's genes, as he cleaned up and discarded wrapping almost instantaneously.
Happy birthday Poppa! I wonder if the fellow turning 18 at the end of this week wants the same kind of celebration? I think he'll pass on the fingerless gloves, but he might like the restaurant gift certificates!
