The Flickr project 365 has been going well. Really well. So well, that I haven't been blogging. I'd like to encourage anyone that may happen upon my ramblings to check out my 365 project.
The Catchpole parents came and visited for their Neil Diamond Oregon Garden get-away. That was a pretty huge event. I enjoyed playing chauffeur. Having mum and dad spend time in our home was really nice too. It is very inspiring to see love last so many years. I'm thankful every day that Betsey and I have two great models of marriage to work from. Of course, we have many others as well, but it's something more when it comes from your parents.
Last weekend seemed to go by quickly. It was a chance to relax before things get busy again. Next month promises to be very busy.
On the 20th, of course, my country turned a page, a chapter, perhaps a book. It was a historic day that I tried to take in with the widest possible eyes. I'm eager to learn what's written on this new page and where the story goes in this chapter. It's hard to know where these books end and the new ones begin. If book one starts in 1776, and book two in 1865, and book three in 1964, it seems that either this book was short or that we haven't finished it yet. If it isn't finished, I can image where it might, and I can see that in 60 more years, we might be there.
Tonight we had company over for dinner. This may be the first time we've hosted anyone other than family for anything as formal as dinner. We're a bit rusty, but we tried to be gracious, and I think our guests had a good time. I know we certainly enjoyed their company. I guess we'll find out how well we did the next time we extend an invitation.
"Remember, it's you and me, together"
