Low-Key Reunion

I'm here.

In Kentucky.

With about 60 + other families.

We are spread out in cabins and campsites and RV's across the Yogi Bear Campground. 
 
The meeting places are the swimming pools, hay rides or last night an impromptu marshmallow roast at the Rowe's cabin.  The kids ran around catching lightning bugs.  I spent 30 minutes with this precious precious in my arms until Nancy Thornell rudely stole him.

  3. What an absolute joy to meet you, Aaron, and so many other previously only online RR friends yesterday and earlier today (and to Skype with Lu)!

    I hope the rest of the reunion (and your adjunct trip to Chattanooga and eventual return to VA) continue to go, well, swimmingly ;-).
