Nigel's Going Away Party:

On Monday afternoon, Cary and I drove over to Eugene to Mom's house for my baby boy's going away into the Navy party. Nigel's best friends came, along with his sturdy, there-for-you, no-matter-what family. We ate pizza, salad, ice cream and punch. It was 86 when we left home, and 2 hours later in Eugene it was 103. Hot and miserable, with a few flies thrown in, but we had a nice time regardless.

Nigel drove with his recruiter to Portland yesterday and stayed overnight ... flying out to Chicago and boot camp this morning. Whoa! Please keep him in your prayers. We won't hear from him for several weeks. He is signed up for communications.
