Among the rocks

| Our friends Roberta and Roger |
Roberta and Roger and their four children were my neighbors at North Truro Air Force Station in 1970. My daughter Jennifer at a year and a half began playing with their youngest son Andrew who was two and a half. They became best friends and we adopted all the Grandpres as family. When Heather was an infant, Jennifer became Roberta’s fifth child at the beach while Heather and her Mom bonded.
When we left the Air Force and the Grandpre family moved to Colorado Springs almost forty years ago, we remained friends. We have visited them in their winter Arizona home, and they always visit us when they come East. Finally, I made it to Colorado Springs with Fern. It was wonderful being together again. Andrew and his wife Shannon and sons Austin and Noah came to visit and have dinner with all of us. We are hoping they will visit us on Cape Cod soon.
We visited The Garden of the Gods and the Air Force Academy both highlights of Colorado Springs that I had visited on my first cross country trip while I was in college.
Then we headed North for to Rocky Mountain National Park.
