Homeward Bound!

Going Home!

I’ve been speaking at four Women’s Connection groups in the Omaha/Council Bluffs area and I’ve enjoyed making new friendships with women in the Midwest.

During the four days in Omaha, we enjoyed visiting with Aunt Ruth and Uncle Russ who are seasoned citizens with class and spunk. We listened, asked questions about the past, and played Mexican train—in that order.  

We’ve had a fantastic trip these two 1/2 weeks. This morning is the first day we did not have blue skies. We had gray, high cirrus clouds across the big skies of Nebraska. We entered the Great Plains and drove past beautiful farms with clusters of grain silos, neat farmhouses surrounded with oak trees. Westward bound, we headed to Wyoming and started climbing, reaching more than 8200 feet—almost as high as Mt St Helens. No wonder the temps dropped to 39 degrees.

We’re looking forward to stopping tonight in Rawlings, Wyoming. We’re starting to get the urge to return home, if only for a short time. More about that later.

Thanks for traveling with us. It’s been so much fun. Jim and I’ve decided we’ll continue these road trips. We do well together.

We're on our way now to Boise. Looking forward to meeting up with Tucker, Jim's grandson. And then it's homeward bound.

Catcha later!!
