On Thursday we had a family get together, for those of us who could we had a barbecue and tree planting, which has become a family tradition. We plant trees in remembrance of those that have left us and those living. Our father loved trees and therefore his influence continues when we plant them as well as I remember my grandfather saying something along the lines of the greatness of a culture that plants trees that it will never sit under the shade of. There is an amount of sentiment in family get togethers that is sweet, wonderful and sustaining. Not weighed down with unrealistic expectations. I draw from its sustenance.
Basically the same except for some of the nieces are looking in different directions.
