Great memories aren't always expensive

We went to Charleston, SC earlier this month to visit our daughter and family. Our grown grandson, Josh, was there for a week from Maine. His 3 year old was there too and what a little mess she is! Rather spoiled, but so smart and funny. She loves her doctor's kit and had to check everyone's heart and ears. Josh was glad to get out of that cold and snow in Maine for a few days. We played a game called corn hole (tossing beanbags into a hole in a board) out in the warm sunshine in the backyard on Saturday. The next day the guys went fishing on a pier and believe it or not, my son-in-law caught a seagull! He was casting his fishing line when the bird caught the bait in mid air. They managed to get the hook out after they put a jacket around the bird. Sure wish someone had videoed it! My daughter and I did a little shopping, then that evening a couple from church came for a cookout. They're from Kuwait and are really cool people. The couple are Christians and the husband was tortured for his faith while growing up before they came to the US. The very best part of the whole weekend was being with our kids. You can't put a price tag on that. Since we don't plan on moving, I just wish we could move Charleston about three hours closer to us!
