Chance was very good at the reunion and enjoyed all of the attention. Our family gets a pavilion and sets up food and drink all along one side. We all visit and eat and visit some more for most of the day. We had to get up a little early to go down to the spot where everyone was to meet for the reunion so Chance didn't get a long morning nap. When he started getting tired my Mom carried him until he fell asleep on her shoulder, that was so cute. Then we layed him down on this sleeping bag. Scott had a long drive the day before to get to us and so the two of them layed out on the blankets under a tree and took a little nap. It is a very nice spot where the reunion takes place. It is at Natural Bridge State park in Kentucky. The tree that they were napping under is very close to the pavilion where everyone gathers. Its great getting to see everyone, even if it is only once per year. Most everyone lives in Kentucky or Ohio except us who drive up nearly every year. We get a cabin at teh park which is in the woods and a great little place to hang out for a couple days. It's nice to have a Kitchen and all the extra room in the cabin plus all the nature and quiet that is all around. Fort eh last two years we have worked in a little Geocaching on our Reunion trip and this year was no different. We only went out after two but that is just enough to break up the day and learn a little more about the area. This year we found a drive-in theater that isn't very far from the park at all and it still shows movies. I for one am excited to go see a movie there next year. There aren't very many Drive-ins left but they are really fun places to go. The reunion is on a Saturday and every Sat. night they have a hoedown in another part of the park. A bunch of the family goes every year. After we go back to our rooms and rest for a few hours. We went down this year and Chance got to do his first Waltz and Hokie Pokie. He was an excellent dancer. He loves music and he laughed and watched the people and had lots of fun.
