Families

[tvordlj]

Attended a family picnic/barbeque/horseshoe tournament today out in the country. Perfect day for it, sunny and warm with a cool breeze. I Love family get togethers. There is such a connection and a feeling of continuity. You look around and see all these people that look something like you in one way or another. You see your cousins and their kids, now taller than our generation, one is 6'6", another has just got his pilot's license at 17... Another of my generation and i ruminated on our bad backs LOL and it wouldn't be a family party in our family without the clang of horseshoes and the cheers and groans of the participants wafting up from the pitches. Winning team gets bragging rights. Sunny day, good food, good company. Doesn't get any better than this :)
