Hi fellow senior citizens as today is Friday I would like to know when was ...?

I put on a big family BBQ picnic about a month ago. My son and family were visiting from clear across the country where he is stationed in the army. He is a lifer and I don't get to see him often. He has been to the middle east three times since I saw him last. I see his family more often but not him. Everybody was anxious to see them so thus the big get together. It was a good time.
