We left home about 6:00am on Saturday, 23 June, and had a late lunch with Shay and Michael in Boise, ID. It was good to see them and catch up on what's happening in their lives! Then we drove to Twin Falls, ID and stayed at Hampton Inn. Great breakfast and the Jacuzzi was wonderful on my back!!! Sunday, we were back on the road early and got into Ft. Collins, CO about 4:00pm.
There was a list of things we wanted to accomplish during our stay with Kelly (and family), but, Kelly said little bunnies were falling through the window well grates and dying. Off to Lowes to pick up some screening.
Our projects were going okay...still have a few loose ends. Light fixture, garden hose, and A/C filter were all changed. Carol and Kelly braved the DMV for plates on Kelly's car...over an hour wait :(
The painters were scheduled to paint the house this week...but, the hot weather set them back a day or two. It gave us time to trim shrubs and bushes...
The days flew by...on Friday, 29 June, we met the tow truck that would take Mikayla's Honda to the dealer. It quit on her in a parking lot near O'Rielly's Auto Store. Then, we left for Denver and met Nancy and Morgan for lunch. Nancy had Morgan, Gary, Shannon, Mike, & Shari all over to her place for dinner...yeah PIZZA!!! We had a great time catching up with all the events and peoples' lives!!!
We stayed at Nancy's and got up the next morning to a great breakfast...then, off to Cheyenne. We asked Comfort Inn for early check-in and got to Cheyenne about 12:30pm and dropped off suit cases, etc. and freshened up a bit before heading to Hillsdale. We visited with Don & Chris for a while, and Mom, Max, and Suzzie came over to Don's place. Don was grilling burgers...they we wonderful!!! Chris put out a spread...fruit, potato salad, chips!!! Don and I looked at the project at Mom's place, and we decided to complete the inside walls...then, look at the deck project if we had time. The next morning, Sunday, 1 July, Don & Chris got up early and bought some wood paneling and we met them at their place. Bob and Susan showed up before we did...good to see them again!!! We cut the paneling to size and nailed it to the wall...job complete. I need to send Don some spacers for the electric outlet and the wall switch! It got too late to start on the deck project...but, we installed a new spring on the old building garage door...just as we got the spring on...the top door panel came loose and fell on Chris' head & shoulder blade. I don't think anything broke...but, it sure hit hard and fast!
Monday, 2 July, we left early for Twin Falls, ID. Tuesday, we got home after rush hour...unpacked, washed clothes and the car :) Just want to Thank Everyone for shifting schedules, etc. to make time for us!!! We love you all and hope to see everyone again soon!!!
