I finally got to spend some time with my nieces Kelly (18) and Laurie (16).

This is out back of my Dad’s house and the house I grew up in.
I wish I were closer to them. Kelly is getting ready to go to college, working, has a steady guy and doing really well. Laurie is in a bit more the the teenage angst, being 16, and wasn’t all that happy while she was visiting. We do keep up in emails and I am glad for that.
