We made it out to Utah...Gary and his Mother, Edith (Great Grandma) and myself. It was a long, grueling trip in the car. Mostly, I slept in the back seat, when I was not working on the blanket for Daphne. Thankfully, we stopped about midway at my brother, Joe's house. We had a pleasant visit and an overnight stay.
We drove all through the second day, stopped briefly in Evanston, WY to see my dear friend Nola, and then made the last hour and a half into Lehi, Utah (20 minutes south of Salt Lake City). Arrived about 10pm our time...we were wiped-out! Mountaiin time is one hour earlier, and they kept Fiona up a bit past her usual bedtime, so Gramma and Grampa ("Pa-Pa") could see her. That made the trip worthwhile.
Gary had done nearly all the driving, as I was in NO shape for it...too tired from my second round of chemo. I am still recuperating, and have been napping a lot today. But I am happy to be with Tacy, Fiona and Chuck, and we are still waiting for the arrival of Daphne...Tacy looks way too perky to be ready exactly yet. She is still climbing the mountain with Fiona in the stroller! (They all took a walk, while I took a rest!)
Today is Chuck's Birthday, and we are going to have a very nice dinner that Tacy and Edith are preparing. I HAVE to play with Fiona while they cook.
Love to All,
Mary
