Sizzle

So what can you do to cheer yourself up after your dad dies? Grill steaks of course. It's been about 2 years since I've set foot on the the Dogwood Puddle Estate. It was a great opportunity to get together albeit under shitty circumstances. Sprouting cousins shared stories of adolescent interests. There was piano playing. The adults drank too much wine. Spirited political discourse peppered the day (making some of us wonder if we were adopted rather than sharing genes). Photo albums were dusted off. The healing process marches on.
