Family cruise

For the past year, as I have noted, the Lovely Joan and I will be celebrating our 50th anniversary this June. The kids (can I still call these remarkable adults "kids") had planned on a party for us but we decided, in lieu of that, we would take all four children, spouses and 9 grandchildren on a cruise. We leave from Tampa on June 22nd for 7 days to the western Caribbean.

I plan on taking my laptop with us and, drink in hand and sun in my eyes, plan on a sort of diary. Since no one reads this stuff, it will just be for fun.

Meanwhile, I can hardly wait to be with the nicest people in the world.
