Weekend with the family

I love this place.

This cabin has been in the family for many, many years and currently under the loving care of my wife’s brother. Years ago when my in-laws were still alive, we used to come up here nearly every weekend of the summer. After their passing it just wasn’t the same and we stopped coming.

This summer has been a challenge for us to find a weekend, or week, for us as a family to just get away from things and relax. I finally convinced the wife that we should utilize this wonderful resource that is in the family. So, we set out for the cabin on Friday and it’s been just awesome. The boys have had a blast playing in the lake nearly all day and have actually been getting along despite our oldest beginning his teen years (complete with attitude).

I sincerely hope we utilize this resource more over the next couple of years — this has been good therapy for the entire family.
