Reunions within Reunions -1

DAYS 1 and 2   

   With the new concrete, we couldn't drive on the driveway for a week. How fun is that to carry all our food and clothes out on the street to load the cars? Thank you, Amy. Sorry we're old and decrepit.

   Four trips up the elevator and Amy and I have most of our stuff in the condo. Since we only had one side the first night, the next day we have to move everything over to the other side; change out the sheets and towels, and all those make-work chores.

   It's worth it.

My naturalist brother, DeLoy, thinks the bird is a 

white-crowned sparrow, perhaps the Gambel's subspecies,

a very high elevation bird.

  

   By Tuesday night, we're all together on the mountain for the first time since 2004. Fifteen of us. A reunion within a reunion. We have one little problem. There are three bathrooms each with half a roll of toilet paper with only one extra roll throughout the condo. When the maid came to clean the big side before we moved in, we told her we were already out of toilet paper. She acted like, "Of course, I'll leave extra toilet paper you dumb clucks." She didn't. We had to buy our own which is against family policy.
   The Big Pugh Reunion is at the Round-Up at Duck Creek. DeRay, Eddy, Amy and I joined them for chicken croissants on Monday night.
