- Well, all are back to their individual homes, and I am back on my blogging schedule while things are calm again. Because Gerry and Erin both had at-home games today, they got to stay there. I was in meetings at their game times, so I didn’t get to watch on the computer but Gerald did. He even had to fix his own supper. I think Erin and Gerry will be playing at home Friday and ...

- Last Friday night, the first day of Spring, Gerald and I experienced the awakening as we drove down to Union County amid the white blossoming pear trees, tulip trees already shedding their pink blossoms, yellow forsythia, and golden daffodils in yards and roadsides. We went early to have time before we met his brothers and wives, so he could take me up to Hamburg Hill again in Shawnee National ...

- Our oldest grandchild, Tara, and her two little boys Aidan (almost 3) and Maddux (3 months) are on the road coming down from Chicago and will be here before I finish this, I hope. Daughter Jeannie Eiler and her Cecelie (who was 10 on Thursday) arrived last night about 10, and were up at 6 this morning. After a quick breakfast, they left the house by 7 in hopes of arriving at Belmont to go to ...

- Spring breaks have started for our grandchildren. Samuel like all the kids here in Williamson County has been off school this week. And so has Geri Ann down in Georgia, which allowed her to go with her mother to see Erin play softball in Boca Raton. Her sister Tara, husband Bryan, and the two little boys also took a vacation there. Leslie was in Puerto Rico with her church group since ...

The next day the three were heading over to Belleville to meet up with the Freeport High School speech team at the state tournament. Today Leslie made the long drive back to ...

- Gerald is back from Georgia and just finished showing me a slide show of the Oconee High School softball team, who are now the state Class AAA champions. He is busy now making some prints of Geri Ann during the game. Gerald came through Nashville a little too early this morning to call Leslie and just kept driving. I was surprised to see the car in the garage when I came home from ...

- When we visited granddaughter Leslie Eiler at Belmont University recently, she explained that for security reasons at the time of the Presidential debates, students would need to either stay in their dormitories or be off campus. I was wondering yesterday where she was when we received an email from Jeannie that Leslie had gone to Knoxville with a suitemate. However, Leslie then received an ...

- At the end of the day, the red clay of Georgia hung heavy on Geri Ann’s white softball uniform Saturday. After four games that day, every player in the tournament should have been hot, dirty, and exhausted. Even those of us who just watched in the blazing sun were eager to get home for a shower and were too tired to go out to eat. Vickie solved our problem by ordering the first ...
