Monday Monday oops it is Tuesday

Hope everyone had a delightful Labor Day Weekend and is ready for the change of seasons. We golfed, golfed and golfed and enjoyed a near perfect weekend. The exception is that it rained on the 17th hole on Monday. We played with friends in Cleveland on Sunday and it is always nice to see how your game holds up on a different course. The Cleveland friends were classmates of Steve's from Ohio State so it seems this September may be a month to celebrate long standing friendships. We look forward to our vacation in Kiawah later this month with friends too. That trip will celebrate the 60th birthdays of friends, some of whose whose friendships date back to grade school.

We saw Mike this weekend and he continues to tinker in his duplex. He has been decorating and changing things to his own tastes. It was fun to have him around on Saturday while we had friends at the house. He enjoys being with our friends and it is nice that they include him. He liked having a holiday that he did not have to work and still received pay for. His great delight is not having to work the day after Thanksgiving. I did not realize it until he brought it up for like the 12th time but all of his previous jobs did not include the day after Thanksgiving as a holiday. A reminder to all of us not working in retail or low level factory jobs to enjoy our paid holidays.

wonderful to hear that you had a great weekend! We will see how the golf holds up on some of the more challenging courses on Kiawah-you two will knock the covers off the ball and lower the course records I predict. The countdown is on as to when we leave. Looking forward to a wonderful week.
