Each summer my family, now scattered across the country, converges on a small town in Illinois for our annual family reunion. We hold it in conjunction with a local fair and rodeo. There we enjoy three days of small town life, complete with a parade, a horse show, bull riding, clowns, homemade pies, and bingo. Not to mention all the good moments we have just relaxing on my parents’ patio with my brother, brothers-in-law, and sisters, plus mom and dad, seated at the far end of the picnic table. (Not to forget the cat sleeping in the chair!)
It’s a good reminder of an important lesson: Family First! – Bruce
