We've had a busy and fun Memorial Day weekend. We were able to check into our hotel early on Saturday before meeting up with Sherry and the kids at the Hillsboro Village Bosco's, the site of my first date with Sherry. After lunch we went back to the hotel so that the kids could have a dip in the pool, and Sherry dropped us off downtown later in the day for the Buffett show. Laura, Leslie and Frazier all had seats together, but mine was a solo seat. Fortunately, there were plenty of seats where La and Les and Fraz were, so we got to sit together after all. Buffett played a bunch of old songs, which we all enjoyed, and although there were locusts this year (well, cicadas) there was no flood.
We headed to our cabin in Estill Springs Sunday after breakfast to meet our friend Johnny, who already had chairs set up in the creek. To our surprise, there is now a house across Rock Creek Road from the cabin on the property Grandmother and Granddaddy sold to help pay for our education. There were people outside when we got there, and I went next door to introduce myself. I was again surprised to find that the owner of the new house was Granddaddy's home health nurse during the last year or so of his life. She's owned the property for years and decided to build a home on it and live there, which means there will be someone right next door to keep an eye on the place for us.
