Brett arrived late last night well after the rest of us had gone to bed. He hadn't been home since January and was extremely happy to be able to visit. He invited his friend, Rachel, up to meet us as well. We had had plans to get together with her on Easter of 2020, but the pandemic changed that. It was nice to finally visit with her in person.
While Cameron and I were at his golf tournament in Fort Wayne, Brett and Rachel took a tour of not only our home, but also of some of the favorite memory makers of his childhood including the Syracuse library and Oakwood park. They went to lunch at Maria's with Grandma and Grandpa after touring their home and seeing the duck's nest by their back patio. They made time to try Tippy Winery as well. They arrived home in time for Rachel to meet Nick before he left for Bloomington with Meg's mirror and several other items from home that she wanted for her apartment. Doug, Brett, Rachel, and I all went to Oakwood for dinner. We had a table right on the lake and enjoyed the food and conversation. Cameron and Samuel opted out of dinner at Oakwood tonight for Pat's Chicago Dogs and Joe's Ice Cream, but they did get to meet Rachel and say hi to Brett before they left. We played a game of Ticket to Ride after dinner and then had a bonfire with Grandma and Grandpa. It was a very enjoyable evening for all and a nice introduction to Brett's friend.
