shared.
each arriving in their own time
all ending up in the same place
the house on the beautiful lake
missing those not able to come
we played board games
cooked, hiked, lounged, laughed, read, were loud, were quiet, shared stories and pictures,
and tried to remember to leave nothing but memories behind
ending a great weekend up north with a final family dinner hangout
at the infamous art’s tavern
on an early fall evening
in glen arbor, michigan.
“one of the things that binds us as a family is a shared sense of humor.”
