#333 - Don't Like Leaving Again

Another Good Bye

Last night we spent the first night of our road trip home, with Jennifer and Kate! Today we had to say good-bye.

Last night, we celebrated St. Patrick's Day with beer (not green) on the deck. Fire and blooming trees and flowers! Wonderful.

Irish Feast

We ate the most incredible feast inside. Best of all we dined and talked and carried on without masks! 

We've been very very cautious with our recent visits. But J & K are both fully vaccinated now and life is getting better! Inside and no masks, is okay.

​Our Food

​Kate made Don's favorite! Corned Beef & Cabbage... Carrots and Potatoes, plus Irish Soda Bread!

In the morning, we chatted more around Mom's old table while we ate Jennifer's corned beef hash and fried eggs! What a treat to have time to talk and laugh and share. We talked a lot about how the world is beginning to feel different, now. So much worry is lifting.

Grandkids

It's fun that the 4 of us are grandparents now. Don and I got a text from Heidi with this photo at one point. We shared with J & K and laughed over that cute bow.

Later, Heidi shared this photo. Melting heart. Now we 4 can share stories and pictures of our grandkids. And share the woes of not living close.

But the good news is... our good bye to Jenni and Kate was easy. We will be in Oregon much more often now!
