Dad took Mom, Linda and Maryann to the airport this morning and left Jack and I in a quiet cottage waiting for the rain to stop. We read. I cleaned and washed all of their sheets and towels. Jack got grumpier and grumpier and I could have been more patient with him. We finally got our work done and went swimming when the sun came out. Roger and Dad both showed up around 3. Roger and I took Jack down to Debbie and Mark's house so he could hook up with their 8-year-old nephew (it's been a real challenge finding kids for Jack to play with!). They spent hours swimming and jumping on the water trampoline at their pier while Roger and I ran some errands. At 7 we went home for dinner and then Roger, Jack and I went down to swim at our pier until the fireflies came out.
