And we met our friend Sally Ann and her niece.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kennysmith.org\/photo\/may15\/may16.jpg\" alt=\"SA\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>We all dined with our friends Jennie and Jeremy, who we bumped into by chance:<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kennysmith.org\/photo\/may15\/may15.jpg\" alt=\"TWER\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Oh yes, I bought a selfie stick today.
