TLC in Atlanta


Good morning from the Smith Resort in Marietta GA. We had the best evening a traveller could have on the way to Florida. Got to Tom and Julie's house around cocktail time and after both dart and pool competitions had a delicious meal prepared by the loving hands of Tom and Julie. I want Tom's marinade recipe for flank steaks. When I get it I will publish it here for everyone to enjoy. One evening is certainly not enough time to cover all the details of 2 families lives but what fun hearing about kids and jobs and of course grandbabies. We also threw out some thoughts for "the Guys" upcoming major birthday. It is so much fun to see Tom and Steve together. The years were erased and both of them could have been high school seniors last night laughing and competing around the pool table and dart board. Time stood still for a moment while we were held close by such good friends. Today as we proceed down I-75 toward my mom and dad's house in Florida we leave behind in Georgia, friends that are as dear as family.

Now about the red wine headache this morning... I am off to the aspirin bottle and I will remember to be a little more cautious in the consumption of this wonderful beverage.

Today's anonymous thought.
As I grow to understand life less and less,
I learn to love it more and more.
