          AN IMPROMPTU PICNIC!

    My wife and I didn't have any specific

plans for Labor Day although we did let

the day begin without us by sleeping in a

bit.

     My daughter-in-law and I tossed around

a few ideas and the one that seemed most

promising was to meet for a picnic.

      The word went out to all family

members who were available and we were

set yo go!

       I put the top down on the Miata and

we filled our small cooler, the one that fits

in the trunk, knowing the others would

handle the bigger items to make a picnic

happen.

       Of course most of out plans evolve

as we go. So it was this time as, being

a half hour ahead of the others, we

changed our destination to a spot a little

closer so we'd have more time to spend

together. That put us at the Susquehanna

Riverlands, a park originally created by

PPL when it built its nuclear power plant

in Columbia County.

      It has a lake, picnic tables and grills,

walking trails, and a playground for the

kids. Young and old!

       It proved a great place to spend

the last unofficial day of summer. Some

have already gone back to school but all

go back tomorrow.

        That includes my wife and I! Oh we

don't have any classes but our schedule is

already filled with grandkids's sports

activities through the fall.  

         Of course with a little luck and

some weekend sunshine maybe we'll

be able to sneak a couple more picnics

in before we give up for the year.

         Hope we get a few and that all

your NEWS is good!
