We started September with a beach vacation.
The NC Aquarium featured a butterfly exhibit. It's hard to see in this picture but the air was full of butterflies.
There were employees stationed at the exits to be sure no hitchhikers rode out with us.

We celebrated Hannah's 20th birthday.
We drove to the Blue Ridge Parkway one Saturday. This beautiful pond was at one of the overlooks.
We went camping to try out our new tent. It was Lilly's turn to spend the night so she went with us.
Work started on the patio. This is beside the carport at the back of the house.
Beginning in September, Phillip is only working 4 days a week. He is easing into retirement. His plan is to retire fully at the end of the year. I completed my training for the Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee and I'm looking forward to the opportunity to volunteer in this capacity.
