Ben and Tony arrived yesterday. That’s the entire crew this year. Emily and Jeremy declined the invitation.

Staying the cabin has elements of traveling into the past. Most of the Jenkins clan have spent some time up here. This includes my deceased Father, my Mom, all of my children, some of their significant others. I don’t think any of my grandchildren have made it here. They live all over the world which is cool but I do miss seeing them more often. (Guilt trip for all my kids reading, Hi!)

Small children often enter my dreams as do friends and family members. I remember last night in a dream I was admiring a child who was admiring the beauty of the night sky.

50k ‘Gen Z’ Students Identify as Republican – Hispanic Heritage Foundation

The incorrect headline is enough to discredit this website and its study. If you read the article, the 50K is the number of people surveyed. There are breakdowns by categories.
