Our Crazy Trip!


During the long wait for our plane to leave Seattle, we got to see a beautiful rainbow. You can't tell from this photo, but it was really a double one!


We took a nice hike in a park directly across from our sister's new condo.



On the walk we saw lots of turtles. Can you see them on this log?


We got to see our nephew's newly renovated 100 year old house and our great niece's team win a soccer game.



Enroute to Illinois to see our older daughter's family, we visited several interesting state parks and saw a dinosaur at the Wisconsin Dells! 


We saw lots of Canadian geese at the little lake by our favorite motel.


And we got to see the progress on the dam that feeds the lake in our daughter's neighborhood and spent more time with her dogs than our grandkids because we had COVID.  Thankfully they have a nice porch, so we were able to visit outside.


All in all, despite the challenges, we had a nice visit and are now completely healthy! And I got to do lots of knitting.....

~~~

Have a great week!

I'm so glad that you are both feeling better. It looks like a lovely trip. That house is so BIG and beautiful too. I'm guessing it's beautiful inside too. I'm sorry that you were sick but glad you still were able to visit your family.
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy

What a wonderful trip! That house is spectacular! I thought you were down south when I first saw it. It looks like something from the Garden District in New Orleans.
