On Friday, August 1st my dad and I drove "up north" to see my Great Uncle Don. Up north is in Moriah, NY. It is about 2 hours north of Schnectady or the Albany area. I haven't seen my Uncle Don in probably 14 to 18 years. Yes, I said years. I remember going to his house in the summer for family reunions. He always had amazing gardens. He says he is too old to keep up his gardens, he is 82. I remember having my kid sister doll up at his house and he would hide it next to him. I would get so mad because I couldn't find it. Adventually he would give it back to me.
Uncle Don looked great. We had a great visit with him and a great lunch. He made macoroni salad, egg salad, chicken sandwiches, cottage cheese. He went all out for us, which is so true to his character.
My dad and I had a wonderful time. I can't wait to see him again.
