Hi There Caleb! Good to hear from you! You do have a terrific family and lots of friends that think of you often. If you're not too busy come on out to the Town Green to see the elementary school parade on Fri. June 5 @ 1:30. We've got some pirates that remind me of you when you were little! All the best, MM-K

Hi Caleb! Congrats on getting your driver's license...hooray for you!
Thanks for writing to all of us out here, wondering what you are up to.
Weekends in Fleet have been great lately, and soon my daughter and I will be down for the summer. I hope we get to see you and your wonderful family soon, but now that you have your wheels, will you ever be home?! Best wishes for that HEALTH to find you fast!
Enjoy, Jane and Kendra

Caleb-
So good to see your post!! YES - you certainly DO have an amazing family.....you and your family have had the force to create and keep alive this cyber-family....it's pretty unusual, I think!!
We all come here to check in on you, your Mom and your bros because somehow, with many of us not even knowing you......we have come to KNOW you...and we are drawn to what fine people you all are - in the ways that count the very most in life!
Congrats on your license - tell your Mom Nancy from NEW YORK says Hi and and I look forward to mid August....I might just need to say Hi in person again!!

Stay healing and Happy Caleb!!

Nancy....

Hi Caleb!

Hey Caleb! You just sound better and better. I loved the story about the crab in Costa Rica. I hope you are taking good care of your Mom.

Hey HEY Leb!

Congratulations on getting your license, I can't wait to see you raging it in town!

It's nice to send mail to you, thanks for the messages back! Jordan and I are going to do some sight-seeing around Elora (his home town, about 20 minutes north of where I live), so I will take some pictures to show you where I live!

I hope you are well, I love you buddy.

Hey Caleb,

You have to burn some rubber for me when you drive by the Liquor Store! No! not a good idea but I'm so glad for you that you can legally drive now. I couldn't agree with you more about your cool Mom and brothers!

Keep pluggin'

Jerry G said...

Caleb, great to hear from you. I wish I had a great attitude like yours! You make me realize that I waste way too much time complaining about trivial stuff.

What's going on with your Mom's arm? Is it healing up nicely?

Maybe I'll get an opportunity to buy you a beer sometime this summer - are you in?

Meanwhile - take care and keep writing!

Jerry

Kim Harris said...

Leb,
Great to read your words and hear your joy. You do have a great family and you are a huge part of what makes it so great. The healing will continue! Keep up all the good work. I miss you, your family, and the whole Wellfleet crew. Please burn just a little bit of rubber through town for me! YEEE HAAAA!
Love,
Kim

Jeff- in the Berkshires said...

Yo Caleb,
Great to hear from you. Can't agree more, you were born into one amazing family and community. You know some things that many people never learn in their entire lifetime.

The healing will come, keep pluggin' at it.

Yeah about the license. Freedom!!

Enjoy and drop by more often.

Hey Caleb,
Thanks for writing...great to hear from you. You sound like you are in a good place, and that is fantastic to hear. You are right about your family, what a wondeful group to be with. I have such great memories of Wellfleet, and more specifically of hanging out with the Potter family; burning brush in the yard, hanging out and drinking beers, or riding in the pick up truck with Bear in the back doing acrobatics to stay in the vehicle. Most of all I remember how much laughter there always was. Be good, give your mom a big hug and kiss from me. Hope to visit this summer.
Love,
Claus
