BB, I always wondered how that was pronounced.:-)

I echo what maeve said, though this year I was not going to cry. I didn't until I saw Micca's portraits!

Next year, maeve? My Rog had one of the worst ever days at work last Friday, started at 130a and didn't end until late Friday evening. He told me the whole time he was working hard to repair damage done by a drunk-driver-while-texting accident which took out a power pole, all he could think was "Why am I doing this? Katey and I should be in an RV at the Getaway!" If we can figure out the health insurance angle, there's a possibility he will finally be able to retire next year and maybe we could drive out. Fingers crossed and thanks given!

Thank you ALL for your stories and pix. We look forward to more.
