What a great vacation!
We arrived at Massanutten on Sunday afternoon to get everyone checked in for the Heiman family reunion.
On Monday we played at the pool and had dinner at the geezer house.
On Tuesday we celebrated my parents' 40th wedding anniversary, my 40th birthday, my dad's 70th birthday and Seattle's 22nd birthday all at once at a picnic in Hopkins Park on the mountain.
On Wednesday eleven of us conquered the Massanutten Ridge Trail, took pics on the peak and rode the chair lift down the mountain. We had Log Cabin BBQ for dinner.
On Thursday it rained. We played some games inside and went to the Massanutten Water Park for much of the day. We shared a toast to the reunion hosts and ate tacos at the RAZN house.
On Friday Lara and her girls went horseback riding while the Demers went canoeing with Mom and my clan (JAMI) rode the chair lift to the mountain summit. At 12-ish, JAMI, Mike, Mikey and Emma went tubing down the Shenandoah River. Beautiful water, perfect weather.
I did anywhere from 20 to 220 minutes of activity on every day and probably had more than enough calories to ensure that I did not lose any weight. I've been sore and tired at bedtime every night this week. We all slept well each night (except my dad, who felt ill for a couple days after mixing up his medication schedule) and enjoyed the soaking hot tub more than once.
Today is Saturday and we're heading home to see Billy Joel in concert tonight at Nationals Park in DC. posted @ 11:18 AM
