Family on the 4th with Larry And Beverly


At the end of the evening, I gathered the family on Larry & Bev’s deck, for a family photo.

That’s Larry & Beverly in the middle on chairs. I’m at the far left, holding my wireless shutter at my side. My brothers John and Dennis and sister Trish are there, and three of Larry & Bev’s four girls with all but one of their grandchildren.

Miraculously, all of us have our eyes open, smiles on our faces, and are facing the camera.

A fun time was had by all.

Thank you to Larry & Bev for hosting us all once again. We really do appreciate family gatherings.

    Thank you Matt. This is a nearly impossible shot given the possible number of weird looks that could have snuck across so many faces.
    Kudos, Brother Mine!!!

    Almost makes me feel I was there. Great photo, guys. Love you all. Thanks for Skyping with me. And thanks for this great shot, Matt.

    Long live the Penning clan, each of us doing the best we can
    to spread love and care, peace and joy,
    to each person, each girl, each country, each boy
    A rhyme not sufficient, but is a bit different,
    Happy Fourth and fifth and seventh
    All the way through the eleventh
    Which makes no sense, no worthwhile contribution,
    Just one more morsel of human evolution.
    – love from six cents, that’s nickel penny; or you could say cents- four, for nick-less penny. Always a goof, the next after Denny.

    Love to you all,
