Thomas Aidan Hursey at Casa Somerset

My 8th Grandchild, Thomas Aidan Hursey. He was born the 26th of May this year, a day after the planting of the Vineyard. This is his first trip here, he lives in Rapid City, S.D. Christine says this is her first Grandchild. She didn't even let them get out of the car before scooping Thomas up.

We took him up on the third floor of Casa Somerset today. Donna Cook and Dick had stopped by to check out the progress on the house, so Donna took our picture. It shows Christine, Beatriz, Joe, Thomas, and me. Joe is my oldest son, he just completed 20 years in the Air Force. I am very proud of him. They will move to Columbia, South America in 2 years, when he retires. That is where Beatriz's family lives.

There is also a picture of three generations of Hursey men in the Vineyard. Did you notice how tall the vines are getting? We are very excited!!

There will be more stories about my granchildren to come.
