We had a wonderful week with Glen's family at Lake Almanor in California. People came and went, so we didn't have everyone there at the same time, but altogether there were 35 attendees, 6 of which were children. The weather was perfect--cool but not cold in the morning (which is perfect for taking walks or playing volleyball), hot in the afternoon (which is perfect for sitting around and playing games or going to the Lake), and cool again in the evening (more games and volleyball).

Usually we just have a big Pinochle tournament each year, but this year, with so many coming and going, we had 4 mini-tournaments that mostly lasted 1 day each. Alan and David turned out to be the big winners. Glen and I never made it past a 2nd round, but it was still a lot of fun.

It was a great week full of fun, food, and the family. Thanks Mom and Dad P for making it possible.
