Yes, it's Day 6 - I cannot believe we are this far into this adventure! Tempers flared and cooled yesterday - all is well again. Or at least swept under the rug until someone cleans in that location. We all went out to eat last night - this was a first since the storm. We took our troop to Mel's Country Cafe - home of the all things battered and fried - yummmmm! The Schermie's had never been there, now they are huge fans. We had a great time eating and trying to talk in a very loud restaurant. We couldn't hear each other. On the way back to Camp Riser, we all had a good belly laugh - the girls wanted to watch a movie in the van and wanted the adults to be quiet. So, the adults proceeded to make as much noise as possible - Jay & Steve talking at the top of their lungs mimicking the girls, Anna, Kathleen, & I just laughed and laughed and laughed. The levity was needed, to say the least. Upon our return to "the compound", aka the apartment, we played The Game of Life. What fun! We had all forgotten how to play and they have added a few new items to the board, but it was a great time!
Today, everyone will venture out again. I am going down to UH Music Library to do some research for my position paper. The rest of the folks - well, who knows what the day holds?
Just a note.....for a long time, we have referred to ourselves as The Scherisley's. Or shall we write it ScheRisLey? This dubbed name is a combination for Schermerhorn-Riser-Bartley. The reason for this dubbing is that we spend so much time together that we have playful dreams of buying a piece of land and building a multi-family home on it - complete with a common kitchen (commercial grade, of course). It would be appropriate to now call us Camp Scherisley.
On with Day 6!
