reunion redux

This past weekend was a rather impromptu reunion for my family. Children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren descended upon my father's land from all four corners of the continental U.S.

Traditionally we have gotten together on the 4th of July weekend, for whomever could attend, but this is the first time in four years that we have had the complete turnout.

Surprisingly, for the most part, I like my family. Sure, there is the sibling that we talk about usually with a subtle shake of the head (and that used to be me until I got married), but I think that for the most part we have done the gene pool well.
