Finally arrived home again after a week in Kiawah, a visit to the Outer Banks of North Carolina and some work (for Steve) in Baltimore. Today is nothing like the HOT weather we had in Kiawah last week. I have long pants on for the first time since last May. I think the official date of fall occurring last week was an accurate calling of the end of summer weather in Northwest Ohio.
Our trip to Kiawah was a celebration of friendship. Five couples comprised of "the guys", friends from grade school and high school and the wives. It was an amazing time. We have done the decade birthdays together since 1979 when the guys turned 30. Not everyone every time but everyone has a good time. Steve and I missed the first in 1979 but have been at all of them since. We fear the conversations that might take place when we aren't there so it becomes a necessity to be in attendance or risk being the topic of the week. We rented a large house and cooked in this year and the result will be a best seller cookbook to be published here in the next couple of weeks. Remember to get those recipes to me. It was the perfect way to handle a group of 10 for dinner and also we found the cocktail hours to be much cheaper. Knowing we didn't have to drive home after dinner wasn't all bad either.
Lots to do at home now but look for more Kiawah this week.
Thoughts and prayers out to Tom who ended the week off in Kiawah with a Monday morning appointment for a hip replacement. We understand the surgery was a success and now hope for a speedy rehab.
