Look! Bill's head is almost touching the ceiling when he's standing in the shower.

We need to do laundry and took a while trying to find clean clothes, but finally, we met the group at Pappasito's. Mmmmmmm.... My dinner was fabulous! Brad, Tom and I all ordered the meal featured on the cover of the menu. Brad to waiter: "I'll have the cover!"
So was Bill's.
Ford, Lara, and Caroline. Samantha - I told them you wished you were there. Repeatedly! I was sitting at the opposite end of the table and unfortunately didn't get to talk to them very much. I will report they were very nice and all seemed personable. Next time I'll have a kid time, for sure.
It was great to see everyone. Here's Maribel and Brad. Brad is just the same as ever - funny and fun. I didn't get to talk to Maribel as much as I wanted to either, but she and Bill chatted a while.
After dinner, we went out by the big truck. Here's the group - Me, Bill, Tom, Ford, Beth, Caroline, Lara, Brad, and Maribel.
Same group. (Obviously...)
Brad, Bonnie, Beth
And again.
Yet again.
The boys!
Nice pose, kids!
Ha ha... Now that's more like it! Your NC cousins would be so proud!
Conversating just before we left. It was wonderful to see the family. Can't wait until the WHOLE family can get together. Bill liked everyone very much and repeatedly told me he didn't realize how good looking all the women in the family were! We all couldn't believe it had been so long since we'd gotten together and vowed to do it again much sooner. Then it was back to the hotel to rest up for Day 5.












Maribel and Brad...
