Visiting Day

I knew that visiting day was approaching when, on motsai Shabbos, MHW and I received our first (and probably last) communication of the summer, a phone call, from our younger, teenaged son. This is an annual event that occurs approximately one week before visiting day and consists of perfunctory greetings followed by the reading of the wish list.

Can't wait to drive 8 hours next Sunday to deliver the goods.
