We drove up north to the Pennsylvania border late this afternoon to join in Loie and Bucky's 13th anniversary party. It's been almost two years since our last visit. There was a live band, little kids and dogs, and grown-ups movin' to the music. Our dog had a great run in the yard, and baby enjoyed sitting in the grass. Two pots of yummy-smelling goulash simmered over the campfire to be served later under starlight. We had to leave before that to get baby girl home for bath and bed.
