Family Matters

There has been much travel since the ice left the waters of Runamuk.

There was a trip to TO for the opening game of the TFC (so nice to be able to cheer for at least on team from that town), but that is not the trip of which I speak.

This past weekend was a family gathering which involved all three of the elder sisters, nieces, nephews, in laws, and assorted hangers on.

As with most family gatherings, as many events were celebrated as possible. There was, of course, the premier event- the graduation of niece No. 3, henceforth to be known as Alto, with a Bachelors degree in Christian Ed with a music major. There was also the celebration of the return of the Prodigal Sister- returned from the mission field after two and a half years. Last, but not the least, there was the birthday of my youngest niece, Hoofer.

My nephew, Jonah, was back from his studies out west, a lean, mean, researching machine.

We ate, we laughed, I avoided board games like the plague!

All in all, a most pleasant weekend, and well worth the trip.

Later, Mushers!
