Dear Ellen,
After we Patty left Sunday morning, we through the sheets and towels in the wash and then made up beds for our next arrivals…Chris, Jim and Tom. They arrived in time for the World Cup finals. We enjoyed watching, but were a little sad about the outcome. You may remember that they lived in Holland for four years and I’ve been to the Netherlands many times. So, our family room was filled with people rooting for the Orange Men. Other than the cup finals we didn’t do a lot…Dale cooked another great dinner and they left early in the morning. Lots of stops for them on their vacation driving from Tampa to Maine and back — family visits, friend visits and campus visits. (How is it possible that Tom is a High School senior this fall!) We loved seeing them.
Love, Jan

I was kind of rooting for the Dutch, but they played kind of dirty and it kind of caught up with them. I kind of used “kind of” kind of a lot in this comment.

We did talk about the incredible number of fouls. Some were amazingly brazen. We also talked about how jinxed the Spanish team seemed to be — all those shots on goal that went wild!
