I just returned home Monday from St. Thomas, Ont., where I spent two weeks with my son and his family.
I had a great time enjoying the birth of my second grandchild, Orrin Reid. It also was enjoyable seeing Makinney (my granddaughter).
Oh, by the way, it was enjoyable spending time with Travis and Sara, too!
