Went to my uncle’s birthday party. He’s 92. He turned 90 during the pandemic so they had a big party this year. My cousin from Texas was up so that decided it. Was nice to see everyone. Didn’t recognize some of my older cousins! It’s been so long. They had home movies on the TV, starting from 1962! There was a shot of me with gloves on punching the boxing bag I think I was 4 in that one. There was a great bit taken at the cabin before Dad added on to it. I’d forgotten it used to be white. Unfortunately the trip was a bit hard on mum. It’s only an hour away but she’s worn out.
