And then...

 We had a very pleasant holiday with friends Alex and Renie. After our dinner when we all ate too much food, we played cribbage and then we played the card game Golf which I have grown to like and we finished up the day playing Bridge. 

It was reminiscent of the holidays at the Brooker house, not the Butch and Barb Brooker house so much as the J.R and Marion Brooker house, Butch's parents. Every holiday and even just a visit it would not be long before a card game was in progress. It was the way it was and all frequent visitors knew it was going to happen. I loved his parents. 

When the bulk of your life is behind you instead of in front it brings about reminiscences of nearly everything. And when you see Grandma or Grandpa dosing in their chair it might be they are having a peak back at 1950 or some other decade and enjoying the show.

And that's the way it was, and is!
