Happy Holidays

Great day today.  I can't believe how much busier it is this year.  Thank God! 

Woke up and did breakfast with Tom and Drew.  Then we all sat on the front porch for about an hour after cleaning breakfast and doing rooms.  Drew and I went to the gym after that.  Then, it was a full afternoon of checking people in and doing odds and ends.

This last week has been "Family Pride Week" in Saugatuck-Douglas."  It is a week in which gay couples who have childern can come together and find peace and acceptance.  The week ended with a parade down Center Streen in Douglas.  How awesome so see the families of gay parents with children marching in pride and our Police and Firefighters along with them.  One fire truck had a load of children on top cheering.  One fire truck passed with a hand made crayon poster which read "Two moms are better than one."  I felt such pride in our community.  And the sign was so true.  Rather than being a child of one parent due to divorce...having two parents is better than just one.  The fact that our police and fire fighters were part of this made me so proud to be a citizen of Saugatuck-Douglas. 

It's "Christmas in July" this weekend.  Happy Holidays! - Jimmy
