My " Summer of 2025 Fun" rewind in pictures

I always feel like I work a lot in the summer. Which is true. This is the first time I actually looked back on my social media to try and see how much fun I managed to squeeze in. It turns out there was really a lot of it. In addition to my birthday with my kids and grand kids on June 29th. My backyard pool has been open everyday since May 15th. Which all happened at home. I was blessed to do some traveling to. We made it to Bethel Woods to see Avril Lavigne. What a joy to take my grand daughter Gracie to her first concert! Right after that we had a great day at Land of Make Believe in Hope. Then it was Junior Zookeepers Day at Space Farms. Where I managed to entertain 6 snakes at one time! What will Parker Space make me do next year? I got to see some long time friends when I traveled to Asbury Park for a couple of days. I went to college with my friend Rich and high school with my friend Dan. Seeing both of them and realizing their friendships were good for a lifetime was just wonderful. I had a great time hosting the Kids Games at The New Jersey State Fair. We had the best turnout ever. All summer long I took my grandson Christopher to Firefly Park Splash Pad in Matamoras. That little boy makes friends so easily. The grandpa grandson time added to our already special bond. When my cousin Roger flew in from Arizona. I finally made it to Long Island to see my family there. Everything came together perfectly. The weather was great for two days on the beach. I stayed with my cousin Bronwyn for three days. We went to Robert Moses State Park and Fire Island by boat. Last weekend I took Gracie and Christopher to visit Tamerlaine Sanctuary and Preserve in Montague. Until recently I never knew it was there. The rescued animals we so friendly and each one has its own story. Our tour with Peter was fun and informative. So as it turns out I had quite an eventful summer. I hope you enjoy all the pictures.
