Me, Sis, my bro James & nephew Jack.  Team 4 Layer Delight, the originals.

2015 my first marathon relay at the inaugural Fort Smith Marathon.  4 Layer Delight?  Williamsburg Kitchen’s bestselling dessert at Mom’s Arkansas-home restaurant.  This year (next month), Williamsburg will celebrate the BIG 4-0.  FORTY years.

Team 4 Layer Delight?  We’re back & celebrating too.  Like fine wine, even better in 2019.  Me, Sis, bro James & in-law Paul.  Only ONE still under the HALF CENTURY mark.  Fine AGED wine.  All eyes on Fort Smith this weekend – FAMILY marathon.

• Thursday start for Ash & Tom.  NBA tickets in Oklahoma City (OKC Thunder), then rental car-trekked 3 hours east on Interstate 40.  Straight shot, easy no drama drive.  Geocache tags & State Park hike next day in nearby Van Buren.
• Sis, Paul & niece Tori wouldn’t leave St. Louis ‘til late Saturday (work & school commitments).  Nephew Jack?  Friday overnight in Columbia MO (U of Missouri fun).  Would fly from Mizzou Sunday early a.m.
• My flight from Denver?  Cancelled Friday nite (weather in Dallas/winter season).  Would ultimately land early afternoon Saturday in Arkansas.  Mom-greeted at the airport.  Heart smile.

Family HOMECOMING.

Saturday nite, PUZZLE nite.  Card table in the living room.  Pieces righted/spread-out even.  Frenzied straight-edge search, border created.  Ash & Tom, they’re expert Puzzlers.  Sis Collette & niece Maddie also strong players.  Me?  Not so much.

Oh, I enjoy the activity – but it’s a sea of browns & illogically forced-shapes pushed together.  Lotta laughs though.

Puzzle nite, FAMILY nite.  Really really good to be HOME 😊
