Pavilion Cleanup With My Siblings

…and their children and grandchildren

Monday, May 31

 

 

Jenna, Chelsey, Nancy, and Anne (in the background).

Memorial Day morning was a perfect time for our annual pavilion cleanup. The pavilion is part of our brothers’ farm, and we all use it for gatherings and picnics during the summer.
