June Adventures



We have had a great first half of the summer!

To kick things off we went to St. Simons Island for a week at the beginning of June. What a fun week we all had staying in a house with Mom, Caroline, Brian, and Sam. We all enjoyed playing in the pool and at the beach, going on a few shopping excursions, and eating wonderful seafood. Other fun activities we enjoyed were climbing to the top of the St. Simons Island lighthouse (Phoebe, Sam, Brian, and Susan), going kayaking (Brian and Susan), and playing miniature golf (Phoebe and Brian).


Not long after we returned from the beach, Brian and I flew off to New York for the Peabody Awards. We also really enjoyed going to the New York Botanical Gardens, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Ellis Island. One of Susan's favorite excursions was going to the Today Show. In case you missed seeing me, I was standing in between two fake trees on the plaza during the camping segment. (Brian saw me on tv from our hotel room!).


Well, now we're back home and have put away the suitcases for a week or two until we're off again to the Brodrick family reunion in Myrtle Beach.


Hope you and your family are having some fun summer adventures too!

Brodrick (with no "e") is an unusual name. Addison James Brodrick married my Aunt Anna Rebecca Morris about 1902 in Havre, Montana. They lived in Havre, Long Beach, CA, Havre again, then Minnesota and Wisconsin and Illinois. They had three children: Georgia, Stuart ("Stu), and William "Bill". Georgia's daughter lives in Colorado, Stu's wife and children live in Sun City, AZ, and Bill lives in Saint Petersburg, FL. Are you related? When are these Brodrick reunions?
