Runs with knives!
Tonight was Happy Mouth night! It was John’s turn to pick, and he selected NICK & TONY’S, a chop-house in downtown Cincinnati. Ted, Tracy, Jay, Kristy (minus Chuck — working), Holly (minus Ed — babysitting), John, special guest Greg, Doug, Meg, Wendy, and Drew all…

Tonight, we attended the memorial service for the father of a friend of ours. It was a moving service, and though we’d never met Mr. Benson, the stories told about him at the service revealed him to be a warm and caring individual.
