Still Not There Yet.....

I'm still not there yet.  I wanted to write a long script about the magical things that happened at Workcamp this summer, but I just haven't been able to put it in to words yet.  So, I am still recounting daily happenings and other special events
Tomorrow is John's 75th birthday.  This is monumental! He's not so happy talking about it so we will not be having a big celebration.  More to follow.
Yes, I am turning 60 years old this month so needless to say that in combination with my birthdate being 9/11 it will be a fun time.  Allie and Paul DID made sure that I celebrated though before she left for Atlanta.  She invited a group of close girlfriends and we went to the GODFREY'S brunch in Richmond a week ago.  It was a riot!  It's a gay bar with "lady" dancers and entertainers!  A couple pics at the bottom of this post.
The pool is finally back to blue.  Giving myself until after Labor Day to get back on track with work.  I'll be processing receipts, balancing the books, looking at preparations for a 25th Workcamp Celebration on April 20th, browsing for a theme for next summer, and getting info ready to print and send out in October.  Here we go!
I drove to Toano and spent several hours with the Plotts.  Best thing I have done in a long time.  I love them so much and wish I had taken some pictures.  Sheila will be celebrating her 90th birthday on Sept 14th!
John is considering driving to upstate New York this month to visit his hometown and brothers /sisters this month.  I have a high school reunion in Gloucester this month.  Allie begins her second semester of grad school this month.  I really am pulled toward the plight of our dear friends in Palestine now.  Another hurricane slammed into the gulf coast of Mississippi this month.  I will definitely keep everyone posted about all of these happenings. 
Gotta scurry.....
