The highlight of the weekend was Jessie's graduation from high school. Below is a picture of her (far right) and three of her closest friends. These kids are an amazing group of young people and they give me a great deal of hope for our country and the world.
Happy Graduation!!
It was outstanding to have Bob and Jody up from Florida for the event and Jason and Candace drove all the way from Jacksonville, NC, arriving about 45 minutes before graduation...whew! The pomp and circumstance went off without a hitch.
We had a celebratory dinner at one of our favorite restaurants Bistro 491 in Augusta, GA. There were 7 of us and the food was spectacular.
The weekend was also spent updating my new computer, a MacBook 2.16 Ghz, Intel Core 2 Duo. Jessie got one too and she is really enjoying her laptop "freedom" here at the house. I am absolutely FREAKING out with my laptop. I have updated all of my programs and am running virtually every program I had on my iBook and FASTER. Even better, I have been running Windows XP via Parallels on the same machine as OS X. This will allow me the flexibility to work with the Windows programs that my job requires and not need a second computer.
Finally, it actually rained in the past two days. We got over two inches of liquid gold on our parched land. Everything got greener right before our eyes. It was so refreshing and cooled the air.
