    The Boise Ball

    I'm finally getting the photos posted from our wonderful trip to Boise and spending time with our great hosts, Arlen and Diane.

    Arlen and Diane (Unaspencer) looking good. Note the red on Areln's face is from the ill-fated fire breathing.

    She is a beautiful, classy lady and a generous hostess. Not to mention knitter extraordinaire!

    Very impressive, I also see the Navy & Marine Corps medal. From all that, you can definitely say that CaptMac has "been there and done that."

    Oh yes. What a life! I was so impressed with his service (not to mention everything else about him).

    vmac, we so enjoyed having you. It was a blast, and I hope we do it again next year.

    Cynthia, thank you! That dress is my favorite for dancing in, and it's especially nice to wear since I bought it at age 16 and it still fits. It's a good reminder that I'm not as off-track as I feel.
