The hurricane blows

Well, it's not really a hurricane, it's a tropical storm but thats about as cl

ose as we will get to the real thing. The chimes outside our door are going wild, but that's about the normal thing around here recently (being wild, that is).

A few weeks ago we might go all day with only one visitor, Now, Amelia must come to see her grand-daddy and grandmom every hour or two. Others come by frequently . It is a delight to see Caitlin and Estella and/or Madeline or Isabella pal up. Amelia is an independent agent and is free as the wind, with no long term commitment to any group or project except decorating the tree house. Gretchen is beginning to warm to me and likes to tease me.
Isnt life wonderful!!

Allyson and Tabitha are both visiting now so we went to the "Wall" today along with their friends Ryan and Chris,and also Caitlin. It was good to see the three sisters together again, if only for a few days. I'm reminded of the thought "like ships passing in the night" as I see the family spreading all over the country.
Let's treasure our time together while we have it- we don't know what tomorrow brings.

Love To All-----Grand-daddy
