Blog Day #197 in a day of my life. When friends come together-laughter-good times -song-wine & beer. Va. Beach- November 9-10-11, 2012. You know, I always look forward to these times together with our friends Jim & Dorthy Brown and Buck & Cindy McBride. We already are in the process of arranging the next one in Feburary 2013 up here in NVA. Perhaps a trip to Arlington Cemetary to observe the changing of the guard- another beer tasting-wine drink! Who knows, all I know is every three months, a little bit of paradise occurs, whether it be here in NVA- Va. Beach or Wilmington NC. We have been doing this now for years and years. We have known each other for over 30 years and the laughter never stops. So I hope you enjoy our weekend together-as we did and are planning again in three months!
