|summary=Every family has its tales which are told and retold and in the Whitshank family it was the story of how Abby and Red had fallen in love one ''beautiful, breezy, yellow-and-green afternoon'' in July 1959.  It would usually be told on the porch of the Baltimore house which Red's father had built, but on this final time of its telling the circumstances are different.  Abby and Red are aging - even the glorious house is beginning to show its age - and decisions have to be made about how to look after them.  All the family are there, even Denny, who can generally be relied on to do only what pleases him.
