Scattered Thoughts . . .

L ukey and Kenzie accompanied us to the International Antique and Classic Boat Show on Lake Champlain in Burlington last weekend.  The weather was great although maybe a bit too hot for a September afternoon.  We walked quite a few miles as we drooled over many antique boats.   After perusing all the beautiful boats all along the waterfront, we brought the grandkids out to dinner for their first barbeque meal at a restaurant that specializes in barbeque.  Barbeque is hard to find up here in Vermont so our choice of restaurants was limited.  Sheila and I had been here once before so we knew what dishes to avoid at this particular restaurant.  We chose to order a bunch of different dishes and share them family-style.  Overall, it was a great meal and we left completely full! We then made our way back home to sit around a warm fire in the backyard and have some S'mores for dessert.  It was a long, busy but very good day! Here are a few of the many photos from our day...

W e had Lukey and Kenzie staying with us for a few days about a month ago but I don't think I wrote about that time spent with them.  It's always nice to have them visit for a few days and this visit was no exception. We kept busy while they were here and Gee was even on leave from work so we could do whatever we desired.   Below are some photos from one night in our backyard during this visit... I'm not sure what was going on here but it sure does look like confession time... Gee photo-bombed one of Kenzie's selfies... After Gee's photo-bombing, she tried a selfie again... Lukey shot this next photo.  It's nice that I am finally able to get into some of the photos!  In this shot, I think Lukey was purposely trying to get the string of lights in the photo with me as well as the golf flag on our new putting green in the background.  He may even have wanted the sailboat in the background too!  Anyway, it is nice to get a shot of me in this group of photos.
