Tomorrow, of course, is September 11th. While there remains controversy* on how the day should properly be spent, our plans are as follows:
- 9am - drop Andy off at the bowling alley for the first day of his bowling league
- 11am - drop Nick off at the local deli where he’ll be stationed selling popcorn with his Boy Scout troop
- 11am - go to hockey rink with Tim for pre-season meeting of his roller hockey team
- 11am - 1pm - Pat goes to Rec Day activity to man a table with Cub Scout information and invite people to the Cub Scout picnic
- 12noon - 4pm - Annie goes to Cub Scout Picnic with Tim to help provide information to new families
- somewhere between 11:30-12:30 Pat picks up Andy at the bowling alley, brings him home
- around 1pm Pat picks up Nick at the deli, and then both Pat and Nick come to Cub Scout picnic
- 5pm - attend birthday party for the son of our friends, who decided he deserved a happy day on his birthday despite the fact that it’s also a day to remember a tragedy
The weather should be as glorious tomorrow as it was 3 years ago…
* this is taking place in my hometown. I understand the mother of another victim from this town has taken out a full page ad in the local paper wishing everyone a wonderful Ramsey Day.
