Mustard over there, potato salad to the right.

Thanks to everyone for their great hospitality, and finally after all these years being able to put faces with names.

The only excitement was when the chair under the red nun disintegrated, the hospital released him this morning.

The collapsing yard chair (plastic - broke up into 6-8 pieces) was definitely mind boggling - er, bonking, Hurt back, shoulder, hit back of head on picnic table bench. Woke up this AM with immovable shoulder and jaw. Roomy hauled me to ER. Xrays showed no breaks, fortunately. Told me to exercise the shoulder and arm, and chew gum to loosen up the jaw muscles. Seem to be fine now. We'll see if I tighten up again over night. BTW, that whole set of chairs is destined for the dumpster. I understand that I also kicked over the table we were sitting at. Undoubtedly, there should have been a vid cam running.

We were fortunate to have the opportunity to meet several new "faces" ... of course no one ever looks like one imagines them. They turn out not to be were wolves or drooling psychos - just pretty normal folks, myself excepted. Glad to have met you all -"George," Paul, Eric, and James - and a few others I haven't seen in about a year. Pleased to see you all !

I'm relieved to hear that Sister K was not seriously hurt. It's a good thing the Princess was there to get Sister to the ER.

It was a great MOM, several new people, and the food, new stories, great food, old friends, the food, oh yes and did I say FOOD. I am sure I gained several pounds over the last few days but what a great time. Thanks for all of you that came from such a great distance and of course our wish that you get back home safe and sound.

I look forward to seeing you all at the next MOM.
