Hi everybody! Two of our daughters, one granddaughter, and one granddog are here for a couple of days. Sue (our oldest) and Alison (oldest granddaughter) drove from South Carolina, and Jean (youngest) and Spencer (granddog) came from Nashville.
Right after they all got here, we headed out to the new Ocean Journey portion of the Tennessee Aquarium. Alison has just graduated (cum laude [says the proud grandma]) from the College of Charleston with majors in Marine Biology and Spanish. She was really eager to see the new part of the Aquarium. And it is great! She loves the invertebrates (jellyfish, nautilus, etc.), and they have a good exhibit of those. So it was a fun afternoon.
I had made lasagna, so we had that for dinner. They'll all be here for a while tomorrow, then Sue and Alison are headed for dinner with their other grandfather, and then home. Jean will be here until Sunday. We'll probably go to the Hunter Museum of American Art tomorrow, but don't know what else we'll do. Maybe find a shop or two to browse in.
Alison is headed to Panama next Friday to work at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. I guess she's all grown up now, and off to start on her new life. She'll be there about 9 months, and then will probably be starting graduate school in the fall of 2006.
Have a great weekend!
