Today, I was vindicated!
Last March, we had family, from both sides visiting. It was a great time and we did LOTS of things and spent lots of time together. Well - two people #1 & #2 gave me a rash of 'garbage' (all in good fun of course) about an itenerary I put together so we could do everything everyone wanted to do, and so everyone would know what was coming up.
WELL, my wife was talking with #2 on the phone tonight. They have family coming in for a visit, and #2 said, and I quote, "I'm starting to think that Steve's itinerary is a good idea and I'm thinking about putting one together when the family comes to visit."
Ummm hummmm! ;)
Oh yeah!
Vindicated!
Ha, ha, ha!
