Scott's wanderings

Cousin Chris (Neal[s wife) and Karen came to visit yesterday and Gail and I had the most delifhtful visit with them.  Lots of laughs and happiness.  It is so good for me to see these three wonderful women interacting with each other in such a warm and happy manner.  It is a strangely content time amoungst them... and interesting with so much uproar, personal , national and political.  There comes a time when you know who you are and who you have become and enjoy the support of those who share your valures and belliefs.  I really love our family (mostly) and feel I understand the couple who do not inspire quite so much love at first glance.  We all got here for a reason, and as we age the reasons get more evident and even workable.  What a time of opportunity.  Wishing you all a great thanksgiving.  My birthday is Nov. 27th.  Looks like I'll add at leastt one more year to the total after all.  I am reading Obama's book, and am so glad to have a president who I am sure has read many books but can even write one.  There is going to be a lot for you guys to clean up in the world.  I wish you luck and wisdom.
