Sept 26-Oct 3

Last Sunday we celebrated Uncle Kay's 88th Birthday with a pizza party (his request) and a Zoom reunion with family. Marcia created a beautiful and delicious birthday cake as well as an apple tart.
In Japanese culture, the 88th birthday, or “Beiju” (米寿), is known as the long life celebration. Beiju is a play on the kanji characters for rice and 88. “Bei” (rice米) is important in Japanese society because it sustains life and represents purity and wholesomeness. “Ju” (寿) means blessing to one’s longevity or just congratulations for a long life well lived! The character for rice can be broken down to its basic components and rearranged as 八十八、or 88.
Our RV Park borders the BLM's Wildwood Recreation Site so I've been taking advantage of the miles of hiking trails as well as biking through the resort. https://www.blm.gov/visit/wildwood-recreation-site
Randy's been taking it easy this week as his knee has been acting up.
Today I celebrated my 66th birthday. The in-laws took Randy and I out for a delicious lunch then Kelsie and Braden came up to Welches and we hiked the Wildwood Recreation Area to the Salmon River where we observed many salmon spawning. A perfect day!Read more
