Nags Head 2012 Memoirs 143 – Chili Night Chefs
Image by Counselman Collection
Our son and daughter-in-law chose this location for this year’s spring trip to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, putting us right on the ocean front beach. It was a great location right beside Jeanette’s Pier, and the weather was so sunny. There were some windy days that made the waves all that much better. Besides our family from Ohio, we had friends visiting from several Congregations neighboring ours, plus a family that drove from mid-Texas and another from Indiana. As usual, we took turns making meals and it was a great experience with everyone fellowshipping and working together peacefully. Yes, I had one conference call with World Headquarters I did not want to miss, but it was still total relaxation. I tried to go a whole day without touching a camera, but then I got the shakes, and I just had to grab a camera and start snapping again; when you are hooked, you are hooked.

Family Reunion – Chamonix 2018
Image by fabola
We had a wonderful family reunion in Chamonix, at the foot of the Mont-Blanc, with dozens of Florin and Bossy relatives from all over the world.
Our brother Claude and his wife Marie-Valentine graciously hosted us in their lovely chalet in Montroc, from July 12 to 16, 2018. During that time, we celebrated two birthdays, as well as Bastille Day and the French victory in the world football cup.
Each day, we went on wonderful hikes in the French Alps all around us: from short walks to Col des Montets and Cascade de Bérard, to more challenging hikes to the Aiguille des Posettes and the Aiguille d’Argentière. We even crossed the Mont-Blanc tunnel for a stroll in Valle d’Aosta, on the Italian side of the Alps.
In the evenings, we cooked hearty meals, from cheese raclettes to romanian dishes, and the wine flowed freely. At sunset, the icy peaks turned bright crimson, as if to cheer us along. We would then view old family pictures together, play games and talk late into the night.
It was such a pleasure to play together and learn from each other. The best part was seeing all our young family members get along so well. It had been 12 years since our last reunion, and our children were all grown up: now in their twenties and thirties, they were smart, sweet, and gave us hope for the future.
We all look forward to our next reunion. Vive la famille!
