Unrelated commentary and Memorial Day

jebra and I spent Saturday and Sunday cleaning the pond. It went better than I expected, in no small part due to mbumby's assistance. For one thing, she saved me from having to climb out of the water every time I had to dump a bucket of decayed leaves and/or silty water. As it is, I hurt but not nearly as much as I expected.Tomorrow we're driving to Byron for the Memorial Day parade and family potluck. We should be home by early evening, with enough daylight to turn on the pond's pump and make sure everything is working right before we let it run unattended.
And now, a scrapbook page for Memorial Day...

Well, that was a surprise
May. 25th, 2009 07:14 pmLast night, jebra told me that he wanted to start bringing big pans of baked beans to the family's Memorial Day potluck before the tradition dies out. Today there was a pan of beans, but there was also a big sign saying this would be the very last family potluck. We're hoping someone else in the family (in the area) will step up and take over hosting duties. We live too far away to do it ourselves.
