We lucked out on the weather. Rain was forecast but only once did we get a few sprinkles.

Yes sir, as Bull said, "shinin' times"

I even managed to sneak in a few short naps under the awning in the shade. (Actually I dozed off in my chair,  :laughing)

Joe, I hope you realize that you are responsible for the memories that lad will carry for the rest of his life.  And it is a mighty good thing.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest Up to God.
