Two days before Carlene's 92nd birthday:
For weeks now, maybe months, my brother Bob has been working with Gwinnett County on a plan to dedicate a walking and nature trail at Tribble Mill Park to our dad. Building Tribble Mill was his last of many projects in the county and it means so much to our family!
Carlene just found out this morning--I've had to keep the secret for weeks--and she said she cried for three hours, she's so happy.
Day and I already have flights arranged to be there for the dedication service in September, and Will may go as well, depending on whether or not he can take off that weekend.
When she got back from her three-mile walk this morning, a county commissioner came to give her the news--and she said it's the "best birthday present" ever.
