#NewThisDay Writing From My Photo Stream

Today we had our pickle gathering - our first annual pickle open. A full busy, happy day in the best of weather; sunshine and not too hot. Frank and I worked all day getting set up and cooking so everything was prepped and we could all play and have fun. I made enchiladas and Frank made crab cakes. My nephew and his fiance were the winners of the matches, and Franci and Will were the finalists. So now we have celebrated with our first pickle tournament and everything went so smoothly. We played and played and played. And we’re all cleaned up! My daughter Perri came at the very end after assisting at a home birth that went wonderfully. I didn’t get to work on my poem today. Today was about family, friends and fun. I’ll rise early for the poem. And Wave comes home in the morning too.
