Third year Day 202 - Thursday July 3, 2014

Busy day today getting ready for my older brother Frank and my mom to come and visit.  It will be a really quick visit.  They will be here tonight and tomorrow and leave Saturday.  Frank lives in Las Vegas.  He drove to Salt Lake yesterday and picked up mom and now up here.  That's a drive!  However, he recently bought a Mercedes convertible, so he's loving the driving.  My parents used to have a couple of convertibles, so mom is excited as well.  When they were first married, they had a corvette.  They had that when Frank was little too.  However, as Frank used to remind me, they sold it when I was born because there was no room.  That was back in the no car seat days, and Frank rode on the floor as an infant, and then by the gear shift as a toddler.  Hah!  Then when we were a little older (like I was maybe 7) dad bought a Buick convertible.  Both cars were black and shiny!  Anyway, Frank and mom got here around dinner time, so we had quite a bit of visiting time this evening.  Mark had our Lake County Republican Central Committee meeting this evening in Polson, so he wasn't home until later on.
