Mother's Day 05/12/19

Sue and I started off Mother's Day 05/12/19 taking Beau up Pine Mountain for a hike.

Sue just relaxing on Mother's Day.

It was a little overcast, but we just enjoy walking up there, and seeing the spectacular views. Beau loves it as well, and we enjoy watching him blasting up the trail ahead of us, and then back, and then back up the trail, and then back to us, and then....

When we got back to the house, Sue just had a ball working on some of her projects until it was time to pop open the wine, and start the party!

I had bought a nice bottle of Cabernet that went absolutely spectacular with the oven baked ham that I made for dinner. Of course, it wasn't just any baked ham! I made a complex Dijon mustard based sauce with different spices and herbs, oh, and a dash of dry sherry and some other things I can't remember because I was just having the best time.

Just before we had started dinner prep work, I received a couple of pictures from Chuck of he and Denise at his mom Kathy's grave that he had located not far from where they live. It was a pretty emotional period while we all took it in.

It's just a little overcast, but the view at the top of Pine Mountain is spectacular anytime, regardless of the weather.

This is a mountain locater map at the top of Pine Mountain.

This is a picture of Kathy's sister Sue, still wearing the engagement ring I gave Kathy back in 1969.

Chuck was able to locate Kathy's grave, and he and Denise went out Mother's Day weekend to see it.

Denise took this picture of Chuck collecting a small container of the soil at his mom's grave.
