Good morning Jill!

That sounds wonderful! I'm so glad that you, too, are planning a Perfect Day in Jillville. Kayaking is wonderful exercise. Some days I see kayakers out on my lake. I own a canoe but not a kayak. My son, Brandon is picking up a friend from the airport today then he and 2 other friends will take him to the cottage for the w/e. All 4 have had great times there in the past and although we will miss him at the reunion, I gave him a "no guilt" pass as this was an excellent opportunity. He emailed me yesterday all excited about it - you'd think he hadn't been to the cottage in years (he was there with Josh and I 2 weeks ago - LOL!). But I'm happy for him.

Ashley LOVES the family reunion and always looks forward to it and helps out. She had a chance to go to the beach today and was torn. Asked if she got everything ready the night before - could she go to the beach early then come home by 3. With a crummy summer as it has been up till now, how could I say no? Besides with her finally out with a group of friends instead of depressing BF - this is good for her. So they've left already but I know she'll be back to join in the fun.

Are you going to see the Sisterhood of the travelling pants? I was supposed to go yesterday with my GF but she needed to wait by the phone (more on that later). Or are you going to see House Bunny? Both look like good chickflicks.
