First Visitors

NEWS FROM LAKE WEBEGONE

30 May 2014, Saturday

FROM CHERYL: We're having a quiet evening, when the roaring sound of a diesel engine assaults our senses. The truck, traveling at a brisk and intense pace, pulls into our campsite.

I think it must be an emergency. And, yikes! The nearest medical facility is an hour away from the site.

But no, whew. Instead, out jumps my cousin Howard accompanied by his wife, Cathy. It's a surprise and welcome visit from family, and they come bringing gifts of wood and Jiffy-Pop popcorn. And a shared meal and fine conversation ends our first full day on site.
