Life is funny. Especially when you strip away that which seems important, but really isn’t. Down to the core, the essence, the things that make us who we are: family, memories, food, wine, generations, all in a setting that lets us know we’re blessed.
This is a letter I wrote to a friend of mine, a friend that we all share. I suppose Dionysus, in this age of social media, is the connective fiber that ties many of us together. Just the same, without the support of family, our ability to be a friend is merely window-dressing. Who we are is what we have to give.
Summer wanes ... and I get reflective about the things that are important in life.

Truly inspiring. Thanks for the post! Cheers!
Your letter was a warm reminder of my own summers past…. And of what is truly important to my life - family and wine (preferably enjoyed together at the lake!)
These are great vintage images, and the letter was written very well. I really think they do love each other very much.
Wow Jeff, You wrote a very nice letter… 
The picture above shows a since of tranquility and peace.

“Roast chicken, corn on the cob, tomato salad and hash brown potato casserole”? Wow, you have just inspired me for my Thursday dinner with a special guest. I had been stewing about what to prepare and thought about the crockpot beef stew with the two cups of red wine I just finished but this is a better idea. Fall is in the air around here and that roast chicken sounds inviting. Thank you and give my regards to God
