Together Again....2026 is a great start for this fabulous but emotional Friday!
We had not visited since October 7, 2025 and were looking forward to being with them again!
Even a sign on the road seemed appropriate for a visit the Heinzes!
Past the wooden cross and row of black mailboxes we turned right to head up Glennview Lane! Of course, passing the Garage Mahall had both of us and every one who has ever stayed there with a sweet memory and a catch in their throat. Think T-Cups!
Our granddaughter Lucy even zip-lined down to it from their house!
They were waiting on the front porch for us! After meeting their son Scott for the first time, we moved from swinging on the wooden porch swing we pulled up the wicker chairs for easy sitting and lots of chatting!
They still have beautiful!stained glass windows in their home, plus books on on most every table. Margie just finished The Calamity Club and is trying to get hime to read it now!
A current story he shared was about their three kids, who remain closely connected. Karen (70), Bud (68), and Scott, aka Scottie, (65), all retired within one year of each other! His face glowed as he told the story! He winked as he said it was a way to have one of them with them every time they came back to the mountains lately! Now they even cook for them and drive them around!
Larry admitted that he would be 90 in October so he no longer was driving! Margie quickly interjected, "I am only 95 and won't be 96 until November! I can drive if needed!" (???) a
As always, she rings the bell as we leave! Traditions have a way of remaining regardless of age! He might have waited on the porch but pastor Henize, Uncle Larry, aka Lawrence Eugene never misses a chance to say"Good Job" as a way to encourage his Muzzie!
A fantastic Friday like no other!
