Sorry for the Delay- - Weary Traveler

Okay, taking some heat for not blogging for awhile. It has been a hectic month. Where to start, hmmmm. Colleen's high school graduation was held indoors for the first time in 21 years and only the 3rd time in 77 years. We had 24 inches of rain in 5 days. So should we cut the school some slack that Jim and I not only didn't sit together, but he had to watch on closed circuit tv from an alternate location? I think not, the powers that be had almost a week to get it together. Anyway, it was a lovely ceremony, she looked beautiful in her white dress and white gloves. The after party was a success even with a deluge of rain as we were arriving. Another Bolles graduate. She is off to Villanova in August! We had a pleasant weekend with Peg and Nancy and the girls. Jim unfortunately was not feeling up to par, long story short we spent 2 of 3 days in the ER, tests that came back normal, different meds, bad reaction to meds, back to Boston.....turns out it was a bad gout attack.  He was feeling ready for golf by Saturday so I knew he was on the mend.

Colleen and I began our road trip to MVY and the summer months. En route we had a lovely visit with sisters Jo and Kate and their families. Stopped for an overnight in the Poconos with Aunt Mary. We had good travel weather, and it was cool and crisp by the time we got to Boston on Sunday in time for Em's 24th birthday. We had a lovely dinner in the North End (endless yummy restaurants). It was a long four days of travel, but that should be the last Florida/Boston road trip!  Two of Colleen's best friends surprised her by flying to Boston for a visit. She was so surprised! They drove over to MVY with us on Monday afternoon. Feels good to finally be here, lots of work to get settled for the summer and I am exhausted every evening. As a matter of fact, I am ready for bed now! Jim gave me an Apple Macbook for our anniversary so I am getting acclimated. Unfortunately, no pictures yet. I am having issues with my camera, hope to have a resolution this weekend and I can post some pics. The girls have started work, business is slow although I think there seems to be a good amount of people here for the shoulder season. Hope to have the house in tiptop shape for when Jimbo comes over for the first time next weekend. For now....I'm exhausted zzzzzzzzz.
