SCSSYYSR 2007

 

Boulder Creek

I'm sitting here on this beautiful late spring evening listening to my son's radio program.  He is the DJ for a classical music show on the CU radio station (AM 1190), "Standard Notation".  It was a hot day in Sunshine.  The temperature reached 93 degrees today.  One really nice thing about living in the mountains is that no matter how hot it gets during the day, it cools off at night.  We had a very nice fathers day.  I feel very lucky that I have two wonderful sons and that our family is filled with so much love.  The Lord has certainly blessed us.

 

SCSSYYSR 2005

It's that time of year again when we celebrate the summer solstice.  A group of our neighbors gather for the weekend and celebrate our friendship.  We call it the Sunshine Canyon Summer Solstice YaYa Sisterhood Reunion (SCSSYYSR).   I made a post last year explaining our multi-family get together.  Unfortunately we did not get to participate.  My MIL, who was dying of cancer had a turn for the worse and we did not leave the house until she passed.  This year we are all gathering in Moab, UtahMoab is the home of Bob and Bebe.  They will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary.  It looks like there will be 17 or 18 of us.  I am really looking forward to a trip to Moab.  I promise some pictures.  Moab is a beautiful part of our country.  We will be camping out under the stars.  It should be fun.  We are participating with The Great American Backyard Camp out.

I hope you are all well.

Remember, never smack a man who's chewin' tobacco.

Smiles,

David

You're journal is truly a breath of fresh air and a sight for sore eyes...  Thank you for sharing your photos, your journeys and your insights.  

The Summer Solstice celebration sounds wonderful!  Enjoy those stars and the company of family and friends.

Beautiful picture of the stream. The reunion sounds like quite the get together. There is something to be said for friends who remain so, even when they no longer live close by. Wishing you a wonderful trip of love and peace. (Hugs) Indigo

Oh your "reunion" of sorts, sounds fun.  Hope you have a good time and I look forward to pictures of MOAB.  Love this photo of the creek above.  Reminds me of our hikes at Big South Fork and also the Smokies (all in TN).  
Have a good upcoming weekend.
