Visiting at Mike's

Here's Mike, Elizabeth & Chris....all in the same spot at the same time. Chris quipped that it was sad that he had to come all the way across the country to see his sister (who lives in Michigan).


Nice blue sky all day yesterday; pleasingly warm; not hot. Mike’s daughters, Christine and Dawn came to visit. It was a nice, relaxing gathering. Mike made some teriyaki BBQ salmon, Andrea made some nice salmon patties and fresh vegi tray. It was really nice visiting with the girls and Beth.
Beth left for Michigan today after having a nice vacation with Mike and Andrea. We were sleeping so sound that we never even heard Mike and Beth leave for the airport.
Before Beth left I had put loads of my scenery pictures on a disk for her to paint. She does beautiful water colors. This should give her a supply.
We also FINALLY washed the truck and camper….had to wash it 3 times for all the grime to come off from the days of rain and muddy gravel roads. The gravel roads get so dusty that water trucks came and wet down the road….making more mud. Ahhh, the wonder of mud! Should have taken a picture of the event, but didn’t; hands were wet.
Tomorrow we leave for Coos Bay, Oregon, to see Chris’ cousin, Jackie Bender. The drive is to be right along the Pacific coast and is supposed to be awesome. Can’t wait to see it. Look forward to some more beautiful pictures....if the blue sky and sun cooperates. But....we left the clouds in Canada.
So, until we “connect” again….

Love the picture of those 3.
Was wondering if you had taken any pictures of my boys? I haven't seen them in 2.5 weeks and I sure would love to see them! If you did could you email pics to me? staneart3@yahoo.com

I hope I get to see you guys when and if you come through this way!

Love,
Cassandra
