Arla's Aimless Anecdotes

This is my attempt to write one occasional email to various people at one time. I specifically write with my cousin Judy in mind. Since we grew up together we agreed in our teens that we'd always try to keep in contact. This is a supplement to our twice yearly phone calls and our once yearly visit at our Johanson Family Memorial Day Reunion.

We're almost ready

I can’t find any batons so I guess baton twirling is a lost art sort of like scrimshaw. We can’t hand down our talent to future generations. I did think about bringing the bounce castle and my bike but then I’d need a big gas-guzzling automobile to haul it all. Therefore I am bringing 5 pizzas, 25 baked potatoes and paper towels. I guess I just need one outfit to wear and maybe a bathing suit.

Lucas has a new sleeping bag but he doesn’t know exactly how to use it yet. If we didn’t have MD he would never know these things. He crawled inside with his chocolate cookie yesterday and rolled around in it with his head covered. After this year when we say MD he’ll want to go immediately sort of like the mention of Disneyland.

Brett and family plan on leaving around 4 and they are very thankful to know their room is waiting. I think my mom and I will leave after lunch and then we need to stop at Costco for the pizzas. Cyd and Dave will spend Saturday with us. Somebody said when you have children Memorial Day is more memorable so next year they’ll probably want to stay for three days.

Speaking of next year, I vote for Moclips. I think we need to go to the beach. You are just the one to find us a good place there. Check on line and see what you can come up with before you arrive.

How many somersaults can you do?
