My brother and Sister-in-law have a pretty place in Priceville, and they have 2 of their sons and their families close by; kids, grands and great grands! There's always someone of the family stopping by to visit with them a little! I was glad to have been able to see all the local family there!
Some pics of my brother's folks in Priceville:
My sister-in-law proudly showed me this poem that the little girl above wrote as a school assignment-about grandparents:
AS follows~~~
(I tried to scan it but my scanner isn't working so I'll just have to type it!)
What Makes a Grandparent
What makes a grandparent? It's easy to tell.
But it's not glasses or a cookie smell.
It's not a garden or silvery hair.
It's not fishing poles or a rocking chair.
What makes a grandparent?
You probably know.
Loving a grandchild is what makes one so.

I like it! :)

We were there 4 nights, but spent 2 of the days in Athens, attending the family reunions there. We meet on Friday evening and again about noon time on Saturday.
Charles and I like to ride out in the country and see some of the old places of his youth. This year, as in years passed, we again did that. This time, though, we didn't spend as much time as we usually do! :( I DID get a few pics of barns, though...barns that my husband knew when he was a kid growing up there! I love that some are still standing, after all these years.
I'll have to continue tomorrow with my country scenes and the family reunion in Athens! :)
