It was a wonderful weekend on the island as we gathered in a big group for a barbecue and game day.  The weather was perfect, and young people of all ages enjoyed the company of neighbors and family for a bucket brigade, oversized jenga game, tennis, ping-pong under the trees, and fabulous barbecue prepared by Paul Connelly and his team of helpers.  We honored the holiday by retiring several American flags in a ceremony managed by Boy Scouts of all ages, and one lucky family had the winning bid for the Aggie Gray flag.  Dave McIntyre played the accompanying music for the moving ceremony.  After dinner, we sang some patriotic tunes and laughed with our neighbors.  Renters and owners, guests and visitors all paused to enjoy each other and celebrate together.
