My dear granddaughter Kirsten and I were walking from our campers on the hill to go to breakfast at Newry. The pink clouds of the sunrise were exceptionally beautiful that morning and I was glad we did not miss the spectacular view! I told Kirsten that conventions were like sunrises.
How are conventions like sunrises? If you want to see it, you have to make it your business to be there when it happens. It is all too soon over, and it will be a while until it comes around again!
For that reason, August is my favorite month of the year, because it means conventions for our household! And this year, I am getting an extra bonus convention! I am going with Donna C. to Georgia convention! How nice to have the month in between, too, to get "rested up" and ready to go again! I have never gone to a convention this late in the year.
Tomorrow Jeannette is coming and we are having a potluck supper here for the folks around here. We have so many good memories of Jeannette and we will be glad to see her!
Then Tuesday, Donna and I are leaving at 12:30. We just might make it to Gospel meeting near Charleston, WV, where we are planning to stay the night with Ethel and take her with us on Wednesday.
I am anticipating a beautiful sunrise!!
