Vorlon Whispers

I had a wonderful weekend with my family. I wish I could have stayed longer. I can't wait until I can move over there. I saw some nice houses that were for sale. We did some errands on Saturday and went to the cemetary. Ted's marker was not yet installed so we went to the office. The lady had a list of three pages of markers and headstones to be installed and found Ted's was nunber 14 on the list. It should be done soon. They have been doing a lot of work there. Roads that were in bad shape have been repaved.

We all went to the Holmes Pres. Church that we grew up in. I was like being home except there was hardly anyone in the congragation that I knew. Two ladies in there 90's who were my mother's friends and the postmaster and his wife. I believe the postmaster is now retired. He had been the postmaster when I was a kid. I knew his nieces. It was strange that not one person my age was there. There must have been 200 kids when I went to Sunday School. Everyone moved away.

On a sad note, my brother, Don looked in the paper and saw that one of our childhood friends had passed away. Bill was a year younger than me and when I was 7 years old, he helped me learn how to ride a bicycle. I had gotten a 26 inc bike for Christmas. The idea was that I would grow into it. I was unable to ride it. It was big and heavy. Bill got a 20 inch bike for Christmas and he let me learn on his bike. I was then able to ride mine. He was a nice kid. He lived in Hawaii for the last 20 years.

I want to get to bed early so I'll be turning in.
