Arrived Safely

My drive to the lake house was without event. Traffic did not seem to be increased with the upcoming Labor Day weekend, for which I was thankful. A bit of fog and a light shower in the Virginia mountains, but actually no problem. I drove through Dayton at the time the Republican Vice President was announced, but other than a couple Washington DC vehicles I saw on the road, most were parked for the event.

I was pleased to find our young swans now about three quarters the size of their parents. They are still grey, but likely will be all white by the time I get up here the next time.

Talking with Stuart, I learned that his brother died last night and that they anticipate the funeral will be on Monday. Do pray for the family and for those who will be traveling.

I am always humbled by your phone calls and prayers as I cover the many miles. Thanks so very much!

Love to you all,

Chuck
