Goodbye Uncle AJ

We said goodbye to Uncle AJ today. He is driving back to Princeton, NJ, where he is currently living while doing a summer internship at an Orthodox church there. We loved having him here for two nights. Luke was especially sorry to see him go. He swam with us, built campfires for us and kept them going (which requires preparation beforehand and constant vigilance while burning)and helped us with chores. AJ has a new car, his first in a couple of years. He was living at the seminary and taking trains/planes wherever he needed to go. Now he can travel in style at leisure in his new Honda Accord. His first and last car was a Saturn which took him over 300,000 miles all over the country. It was still running fine when he donated it to Catholic Charities. Congratulations, AJ, you deserve a classy reliable car. Please don't forget to come back and visit us soon.
