We had a delightful visit from the past

In the early 90's we were a host family for Aydin Gokcen, a Denison student from Turkey.  We had the pleasure of visiting with him the past Friday, Saturday and Sunday as he and his lovely wife Sinem were here for a class reunion.  We also got a peek at his very cute daughter Yaz on face time.

We took them to the airport Sunday morning and had time to pose for a picture at the same spot where we took a photo of Aydin upon his arrival those many years ago.

No poolside Happy Hour this Friday 5/29 ...

Friday June 5, 2015, weather permitting, Wes Raynor shall be playing guitar and serenading us!  Put it on your calendar! 

We'll be hanging by the pool Sunday afternoon 5/24

Stop by around 2:00 or after if you want to visit.

BTW, The band that was practicing the last few nights right behind our property is playing at Jugz Monday.  They will be doing a back yard party right behind our place some time this summer.  I'll keep you posted here.

They say TOO COLD for Happy Hour this week BUT they got it wrong.

At the last minute it turned nice.  Would have been a good Friday for HH.  We'll get them next time.
I did hear a band practicing in the yard behind our house this week.  They sounded good. Lots of times they have a band playing for the holiday weekend.  I'll check it out and post what I find.  Maybe we can do a back yard listen in?

It looks like we are warming back into the 80's for Friday but with a 50% chance of rain.

So it looking like a no for poolside cavorting this Friday May 15. The weather channel has a similar 10 day repeat forecast.

Don't forget to check back for Happy Hour updates and don't forget that the 140th running of the Preakness is Saturday (May 16th. 6:14pm EST on NBC).

We are off and running!

Brien has not relinquished his title of first to arrive!  In fact he got there before I finished my beverage run.  Also in attendance were Tim, Peggy, Ellen, Kolt, with special guest appearances by Mike Smith, Ken Hale and Zoe!  We had one swimmer.  Can you guess which guest took a swim?

We are on for Happy Hour May 8, 2015!

We are providing Sloppy Joe's and Chicken Sandwiches.

The pool will be a bit on the chilly side for most adults.  Maybe 75 or 76.  Kids should like it though.

HOPE TO SEE YOU HERE so you can share in our lottery windfall if there is one.
