Final day in Chester

... hard to say goodbye ...

Front porch, for a change

.
It was the last full day for DOD and me in Chester, we wanted to go out to eat, it was threatening rain (finally), and for whatever reason I can no longer remember we decided to get these shots of us clowning around ...

A wonderful evening

.
We enjoyed a wonderful evening with kith and kin and a chance to catch up on old times over pizza at Uncle Les' and Aunt Joan's cozy home. Thank you so much, Uncle Les and Aunt Joan!

Our respects

.
To Grandma and Grandpa ...

Entertainment at no extra charge

.
Mom knocks herself out on the ivories ...





... too much excitement for her, I guess ...

A day just for Nan, part 2

.
In keeping with family tradition, the decision on vittles went to Nan ...

Finger-lickin' fried chicken, honest tootin' corn on the cob, smashed mashed potatoes and butter ... Nan you can invite me to your party any day! Oh, and then there's the cake! Oh boy ...
