Scattering of the Ashes

Saturday we went to the Kaufer-Hebert Memorial Park in Loyola Beach, TX to scatter the ashes of David Sales (Susan's Dad or Dad to me).  I had not done that for anyone before.  It was a nice gathering of the 8 of us.  Janet took the lead with a poem and a prayer, and then we took turns scattering the ashes into the Baffin Bay, a place Dad enjoyed a lot.  It was a nice way to do it.

Astros game

One of the summer joys is a good baseball game.  Last year, I didn't get to see a MLB game so I have remedied that this year.  Last night I saw the Astros v. Chi White Sox.  CWS won 4-2.   There were not too many people there for a  Monday night but it was a good game with hard hitting.  Lots of deep drives including a triple that scored two of the Astro's runs.  Alas, those were the only 2 there were.

This year you can bring in food so John brought some Lenny's subs.  We had plenty to eat, that's for sure.   This morning we ran off some of the calories before starting the day.

Happy Father's Day

Today was an extra good Father's Day.  I felt very blessed to be a father and thankful for my wife and daughter who made that happen for me.  It was great to all be together.  Very memorable all day long.

Back in Kingsville

After Mom was in McAllen looking at apartments this weekend, I brought her back home this afternoon.  After dinner we watched the NBA Finals, Spurs v. Heat.  Heat won Game 2 on a big performance by LeBron James.  This block will probably be on the highlights for a long time...



Tomorrow we are set to get an IRA form in the mail after it is notarized and then also we have to go by the credit union.  Should be a profitable day.
