Lakeside I



Not much to say with words about this place. Actually it is hard to describe my love for Lakeside without rambling on and looking the fool. "It completes me..." is probably the only way to sum it up. It is my past, present, and future. My Grandma and Grandpa Lanfear started the tradition long before I was around and now that Dan and I own a "little peace of Lakeside", we will show our children how much it means to us. I have been blessed to spend about 3 weeks here off and on this summer. This week marks the Lanfear/Hayes gathering. We are separated into three places this year and I like parts of it and miss other parts of it. I like to have my own space yet, I miss the gathering of the family. I enjoy the laughter and rejoining of the family. My kids love having Uncle Jerry at their disposal. JDH adores Jerry and can't wait to putt putt and shuffle board with him. WCH can't wait to fish. Who knew that Grandma and Grandpa Lanfear would start such a wonderful tradition for our family and their Great Grandchildren. In a small way, Margianne has touched the lives of everyone here this week.
