Family Time In Kingsport, TN

We stopped in Kingsport to see our son, Mark, his wife Christal, and Ethan, age 4. It was great to arrive in time for Ethan's T-ball practice. It was so much fun watching him field grounders and swing the bat. We always enjoy staying at Warrior's Path State Park within the city limits. The park has a wonderful lake where Grandpa and Ethan enjoyed a brief time of fishing. The big ones are still in the lake, and so is part of Ethan's line that hung up on a rock. Within the state park is a new, unique playground that has the latest equipment for handicapped children. We arrived on opening day, and Gloria had a lot of fun playing with Ethan and other kids who needed a grandmother's attention.

Mark has expressed an interest in affiliating with Hissong Associates Inc. on a part-time basis. He will be working with both Robin and his dad, once he becomes certified as an Inscape Publishing consultant next April. He and Christy are also interested in some of the household items that we must part with prior to selling our Virginia home. They will rent a truck and make the trip to VA in mid-June.
