Beautiful day but they just can't get enough Birch Wisdom! Pictured, from the left, are my nieces Celia and Alice, with my sister Alice and wife Chilly P. in the chairs. Oh my my, what is the world coming to? I don't know about the girls, but apparently the ladies are addicted to Craigslist. (Well, OK, I confess, I spend a lot of time on Craigslist myself looking at used trucks). Too bad Thelma's not in the picture--but believe me, she too is handy with the laptop. Anyway, the real point is that I so enjoyed having the family here for a visit, and missed them terribly when they left.

I'm heading back to the AT at 5:30 AM, so no posts until Tuesday. Until then, stay well (and Pop, I'll be thinking about you--with love).
