Four Friends

Hey there, my friend!

One more post from the shores of Lake Superior!

Every summer, three of my friends and I get together. We all lived together when we were in college in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, back in the late 70s/early 80s. The house we lived in was on Farwell Street, and we dubbed ourselves the “Farwell Foxes.” I know, a little full of ourselves, right? But the name has stuck, as has our friendship.

We loved our time together at UWEC. We stood up for one another in our various weddings, and then we all embarked upon the business of having babies. There were several child-rearing years that passed that we didn’t see each other, as we all ended up in various cities.

And now we take turns hosting each other for a weekend in July. This year it was my turn. We never seem to run out of things to talk about. We never seem to run out of things to laugh about. Here are a couple pics of us gals.

I happened to see this posted on Facebook the day they all headed home. It seemed to fit us well.

I hope you have a few good friends you can count on and who love you and all of your “versions.”

Next week I’ll be coming to you from Stillwater, Minnesota. I’m heading south gradually so I don’t shock my system.
