Thursday Morning July 16th

Well its all quiet here this AM with company gone except for Bobby and family. We got to bed at a decent hour last evening instead of the after midnights games. Oh well. It's been fun and I only wish I had been a little cheerier with this aggravating back and knee pain. Its starting to ease just a bit and at times I'm not noticing it 24/7 which is a good thing because I'm on the tamper down side of the meds which is necessary when using prednisone I learned.

We spent the morning with Austin and family and they cut our around 10'ish for their cabin in the Boone area where Bobby will meet up with them today. We will stay back and watch the boys which is always a treat. They are teething which is always a very uncomfortable time with newborns and they are not napping great but the nights seem to be good thus far. We stayed around the cabin except after their 3'ish feeding we took them over to visit our "mountain mom" Helen for a few and then Nancy and Katie took the boys back to the cabin for a nap while the rest of us fished in her lake. We caught enough fish for supper this evening(thur) and then we settled in the rest of the evening cleaning up some leftovers and then we got into a family game of Kings on the Corner which Bobby smoked us big time. Anns and Gabe played the game quiet well and really enjoyed it as well. I went to bed around 10'ish after a hot shower as did everyone else as they must get up and be in Boone around 10'ish this morning.

Well it rained during the night and its quite foggy here on the mountain and probably our first really muggy morning, LATER
