"Hold Me Down!"

Dear Friends and Relations,

We had just about the best time ever in the history of the world over the Thanksgiving Holiday! Everybody got here Wednesday, but Thursday had such great weather, we postponed the Meal 'til Friday and all went to KainTuck Hollow for an outing that (not surprisingly) turned into a swim for many of us. After a fire-cooked meal, we all hiked to the tunnel cave, except that none of us found it even though we separated into three or more groups and got lost from each other for a while.

The rest of the holiday reunion was filled with food, family, and friends. Sunday, we sent the groups off with prayers and pictures, including several we'll not see until after their visits to other countries across the wide blue Atlantic! The weekend ended rather inauspiciously with Bill driving a friend's 4-wheeler into their pond. (You didn't hear about that?)
