Return from Auburn

Well the kids are back in Columbus and I am back in Snellville. Sydney has one more week of The Springer Opera House Drama Camp. Both girls had swimming lessons Monday which is great. Gabby is showing some swimming ability. I think she likes the water.
They got to go see the fireworks in Auburn on the 4th of July. On the 5th Sydney and I rode our bikes all over campus. The little kept up pretty well. We rode out to the new Swimming facility, the stadium, the tennis courts, Old frat row, and just about everywhere you could go on a bike. On Sunday we did it again. This time we were about to round Hailey Center when I heard my name, it was pretty funny because I left my glasses at the hotel and could not see who called it. It turned out to be Maria an Auburn Track Athlete that I went to school with. We were freshman together and lived on the same hall in dorm J. She looked great and one of her daughters was with her. Her husband is military and they are residing in Montgomery, but they are moving to Japan shortly. That was pretty cool. She got to meet Sydney who was riding with me. It was great seeing Maria after so long.
I got back Monday just in time to head off to class. Gabby and Syd are back in Columbus for the rest of the week. I have class tomorrow and Wednesday night so I have to hang out here. I do plan to do some motorcycle riding. Now if you are wondering why I am up so late. Sydney called a few ago she is having trouble sleeping and says she can't sleep because I am not there. I wish she could stay six and always want to be with me..
I did get home to a very healthy garden. I picked 12 tomatoes (I better find a home for some), a bunch of cucumbers, and two healty size yellow squash to pick. We now have watermelon I saw about three growing and about 7 of the other melons so we are having a very good garden year, except for the green sqash (Not doing so well).
Well I hope everyone is doing well and G has the camera so I will post photos at a later time.
