We were out in the Shenandoah Valley, so we made a fun visit and a serious visit. The fun visit was to a huge playground in Front Royal, Virginia.

We also visited my parents' grave, where we reminisced a bit and said some prayers for them.

In a build-up to basketball season, our parish was hosting skills workshops on Monday nights. My youngest wants to join the league in the late Fall, so this is a good way to meet other kids and work on abilities that have not been used for about a year.

My oldest had band camp in August, getting ready for the football season when school starts. At the end of camp, the music department had a music fest that included the chorus and the chamber orchestra performing before the marching band took the field.

We went out for dessert to the
Charmery, an ice cream shop in Columbia, Maryland. I got a delicious scoop!

We went to
Glen Echo for a swing dance with my brother and his gal.

Our youngest had his birthday in August. We had multiple celebrations. The first was a family celebration with a lemon cake.
