Family Time

 I made a trip to WNY to spend time with the siblings and their families.  Gail wasn't able to go as she has a final week at her job and then will be going to the Adirondacks to see our family from her side visiting from California.


We kicked things off at the Big Inlet Brewery in Mayville to throw John a surprise party to celebrate his 60th birthday.  He was surprised, and it was a fine collection of family and Westfield friends.


We then gathered at a house Sue found to rent for the week on Chautauqua Lake.  Dori showed her massage skills, she was good enough at it that Jim actually spent a night away from Dansville.  Dori was glowing.


A few of us went to the Institution for the Natalie Merchant concert where she played with the symphony orchestra.  As much as I prefer her songs arranged with her band, it was a treat to see her play with an orchestra she grew up listening to for a hometown crowd.
