May was peaceful and calm. Ollie was without all his people so we celebrated his Mayday birthday with him. We met with the Hansen cousins in SLC. Lynn roasted a delicious turkey for Group dinner at the Astles, and we headed to AZ for a Boynton get together which was all about visiting and food. We stayed with the Youngs in Peoria and spent some good time with them, too. Kris and I stayed in on Memorial Day and didn't join the huge gaggle at the cemetery. We celebrated our 54th anniversary with a home-cooked meal and gifted ourselves a re-landscape of our yard. It will be ongoing through the fall.
