On Saturday, we flew from Chicago to Detroit to spend the day with Dennis’s family. His cousin Darren invited us over to his yearly bonfire, so of course, I was ***Very*** excited!
Here’s Darren & Rose inside his pad. He has an awesome place, it’s a huge building with his speedboat, workout gear, a pool table, wood burning stove, galley kitchen, 60 gallon fish tank, and a cozy bedroom. Quite the space!
Here’s Aunt Jean, Marion, Aunt Irene, and myself at Darren’s Bar area.
The Night is Young and the Fire was just getting started! Brenda & I chatter on…
We all had a fabulous time catching up. It had been a couple years since we visited, and we missed Uncle Bob. Everybody misses Uncle Bob. He was just one of those kinds of guys!
Darren was a great host, the bonfire was just amazing. I had boatloads of fun pushing the old wire spindles into the flames.
I also had fun playing with Gracie & Ella. These little girls are like two rapid fire sparkplugs. I definitely got a workout that Saturday. Maybe just enough to work off that superbly yummy Cherry Cheesecake, or the mound of humus & chips, or the pasta salad I shoved down my throat!
