Company Coming

Flashback Friday is hosted by Camille.  (Click on the badge to visit her blog, which is the home of Flashback Friday.)  I was introduced to this delightful meme and blog hop by Rosey.  Why don’t you consider joining in the fun?

I was very distracted last week and failed to participate.  Sorry about that Camille and Rosey.  I’m going to try to do better, because this is a very fun meme.

We’ve got company coming this weekend.  Our son, Scott, is going to spend a week or so with us.  Sylvia and I are looking forward to being with him.

Mason, Michigan, 1969 — Scott’s first birthday.

As 1973 began, Scott was enrolled in Kinder in San José, Costa Rica.  That fall he started Kindergarten in Quito, Ecuador, and his mother was his teacher.  (That was quite a challenge, but that’s a story for another day. 🙄 )

Speaking of education, Scott, attended classes in three different schools in Michigan after we returned from Ecuador.  Later, when we moved to Connecticut, he finished middle school in the town where we lived and after that High School in an adjacent town.  While in Mississippi with the USAF, he earned a couple of degrees.

I think he takes more pleasure in the various martial arts black belts that he has been awarded.  An activity that he continues to be very active in as an instructor.
