A View From the Porch
I can count on two finger the number of places I am comfortable when I call them up and ask if they want to host my family reunion. One is at Millie's in Illinois - that is where we had Thanksgiving.
The other is in Tekamah, Nebraska. I called Cliff and Marilyn and ask if they would like to host a family reunion over Spring break. Their answer was, "Of course we would." I even tried talking them out of it a couple times - it didn't work, they were ready.
This is a view from the Morrow's porch the day I arrived. I'll write more later but Cliff just said the barbecue chicken (his world famous barbecue chicken) is coming along nicely. I better go check. More about this most excellent adventure when we return.

I can't wait to read all about it. See you then...
Are you in my neighborhood this weekend? Maybe I'll see you in church.
now it makes sense on why cliff grabbed a kitchen utensil to mud the drywall, you were there. i knew you were behind that!! lol
hope the reunion goes well. can't wait to read all about it!
Nice meeting you today. Glad Cliff brought you along.
Now, if he doesn't hit his deadline Monday, I'll know why (just kidding, I'm not that concerned, he hasn't failed me yet. And I don't even hit my own deadlines!)

Okay, I'm jealous.
I'll try to be happy for all of you though......
Yes, please tell us! At first I was jealous, but then I remember you ARE family, Cliff's adopted family. So, you should be able to have a reunion over there.

Reunions are so fun!! I did three and had cousins etc., come from all over. It was so fun to meet them and we still keep in touch.
About those Nebraska people, they are so friendly it's fun just being around them!
Thanks for the visit Ralph. It's always an honor to have you and the family. Also, I know it takes a couple of hours to figure out the 'Morrow' method of entertaining but you and yours always fit right in. Please return as often as you can.
Sounds like a fine time, along with tasty chicken, is on the menu. Look forward to details... Deb
See, now, that's what I call a friend. Hosting your reunion and barbecue chicken? You've got to hold onto these people. But then, they've put up with you for this long, so chances are they're friends for life. *G*
i hope all goes well. sounds like a wonderful time to make more memories. can't wait for the details... including what that bbq chicken tasted like!
Enjoy!
Aren't we distant cousins, Ralph?
I wanna come to the reunion!
A preview of things to come?
Ralph and Cliff's Excellent Adventure
- That's got to be a good one! Looking forward to it.
