Fall meetings now on agenda Summer is over, for all intents and purposes, and already most of us are making agendas for fall meetings, fairs and other events. In a way, it's kind of a relief to be hack to a more structured way of living, but the relaxed, madcap days of summer were awfully nice too. On the whole, the weather was marvellous, allowing lots of swimm- ing, sunbathing, tennis and golf, not to mention. lawn cutting, and weed pulling. There were lovely visits from family and friends we see only in the summer, and wiener roasts on the beach under moonlit skies. There were lazy breakfasts on the porch, and long quiet walks by the lake with New Fall Arrivals Exclusive Linda and Fara Lounging Line Includes 100`. silk sets and 100°° polyester sets.

Ile was accompanied by his twin guinea pigs. -Homer and Vivian, and - his grandfather who claimed not able to abide the creatures, constantly made veiled threats about what he would 'do to "those rats" if he ever caught them crawling around the house. Consequently, Duncan kept, them sequestered in his room, which began to smell like Old MacDonald's farm, and after ten days, I think we were all relieved when they left for home,'still alive and kicking. There are other hardships that an 11 -year-old boy must bear when visiting grandparents. One of the hardest is keeping his getto blaster at a decibel that will not injure ancient ears. And although there were a few grumblings from both sides, we all survived nicely. Although he lives 85 miles away. Duncan sometimes sees this column and has warned me severely that i must not say anything "personal" about him. That makes it very hard to tell you that having him visit is like having an overgrown. goofy, lovable, sometimes grouchy teddy heat' in the house. In other words. it's fun ... and unpredictable.

And the depth of her childish words would choke me up as 1 realized how carefully l must walk if she was going to follow in any steps I made in this life. This year. it was she who out distanced me, her long. lithe, brown legs striding ahead while she called over her shoulder, "('ome on, Grand- ma, follow me'" 'Phis year, I realiz- ed she is beginning to outstrip me in many more ways than just walking on the beach. Isn't it strange how our lives are divided into parts'' As young adults we nurture our children and try to lead and direct them in the right paths. Then, suddenly, they overtake and pass us so that we become the followers, while they take over the leadership.
