Day One Hundred Seventy Nine 2012

Heat, ma'am! it was so dreadful here, that I found there was nothing left for it but to take off my flesh and sit in my bones. ~Sydney Smith, Lady Holland's Memoir

Grandson Knox checking out the menu for supper at the new meat-n-three restaurant in our town—Family Traditions Café. We’ve been a couple of times before and loved the food. This time we took Knox’s daddy, Kerry. He loved it, too.

Knox couldn’t decide what to order, so he ate the menu.

“I want your camera—or whatever that thing is you keep sticking in my face!” says grandson Knox, who is always ready to grab anything within his reach and, of course, stick it in his mouth.
