as everyone knows mark has a tendency to keep us on our toes with his quick wit. he also has the tendency to keep all of us on our toes with his actions. it never failed when the cameron family got together for dinners the hawk would always manage to catch at least one sister off guard.
a couple years ago, the franke family, susan and mark were all travelling to durango, co for their skiing trip of the year. this was an especially special trip because it was the first for the entire franke family to be skiing together. i wasn't able to join them for the trip but i was able to meet them in colorado springs, co (where i live now) for a nite.
it is a tradition that when the kansas cameron's come to colorado they have to have mexican food and margaritas. well we finally found 3 margaritas (that is a restaurant in co springs but yes i am sure we probably drank 3 margaritas...each). as we were trying to get the sitting situation decided mark had run to the bathroom. looking at the table i made sure that the only open seat was next to mark william. the sisters did this quite often to protect their knees.
i had just joked with mark william about uncle mark and his hawk, well, low and behold the first thing that mark did was to sick the hawk on mark williams knee as soon as he got situated in his chair. sending everyone up in laughter.
i know the hawk may not function nearly as well as it used to, but mark, i am sure you will be the first to figure out a way to keep us all on our toes as we all sit down to dinners in the future.
love ya mark! i am looking forward to having thanksgiving dinner with you this year.
