Jane, William and his 2 friends, who had slept over the night before at our rental home (all on Spring Break from school) all duly arrived at Lot 7 Merlin Road at 8.00 a.m. on March 17th (the day after Stephen proposed to Rebecca!), as instructed by Rick, our general contractor. Why? To witness ground breaking of our long awaited new home!
The boys, all 13 years of age, of course were very excited at having to get up so early, and be out and about on a bright frosty morning. The bribe of a Wawa Breakfast hoagie did the trick (or maybe they secretly hoped it would be their lucky day and they would see a lepruachan it being St Patrick's Day!!) In the absence of my husband I needed some support/ company on this momentous occasion...so our younger son and friends were my groupies (for all of 10 mins!).
In the photo (from left to right..and, as it happens in descending order of height!!) Steven Walsh; William Blake, Liam Macartney and me!
