Happy 4th Anniversary Ben & Elizabeth!
























Hi Kids,

Dad and I send you both our love and gratefulness that we have been able to share in watching your relationship bloom from emails to marriage. As Maggie would say, "It's been a hoot and a half!".

Today also marks the final day of our ride. Nancy and Sandy joined us in Bend, Oregon yesterday for a quick visit and trip to the Harley store. We left them in Bend and made the long, hot, hot trek to Medford, Oregon. Let me say that again. Long and hot. I was offline yesterday and missed Marsha's birthday! Happy Birthday Marsha! What is up with the ball? I can't wait to hear.

We are staying in Medford with our good friend Carol. Last year we began our trip with her and this year we are ending it with her and her wonderful cat Tommy. It is hard to describe her beautiful home-so I won't try. Suffice it to say that we love being here. Thank you Carol.

We are now waiting for Sandy and Nancy to arrive and we will be off to the Medford Harley to buy some overpriced merchandise. Then, hopefully to Ashland to have a lovely lunch and then the final push for home. I am starting to miss Jack and Gracie.

I am out of blog stuff. We ended the trip just in time. I am watching Carol arrange flowers from the Farmer's Market she and George just returned from and I am full of fresh fruit she prepared for us this morning.
George is going to take Carol on a ride to her daughter Tiffany's home. Carol is a bit concerned, but is a brave soul. When she returned she said her adorable grandson, Owen, was quite interested in the helmets and put his on too. Owen has really taken to Big George. Life is good. Jenson

  2. Wow... at first I thought you wrote that GEORGE was arranging flowers from the Farmer's market... I need to learn to read for content... Anybody know an English teacher?? Sounds like you will be returning just as the weather here isn't Blast Furnace Hot! Good planning! I have enjoyed reading your blog (as usual!) and agree that it would be wonderful to hear the "Unabridged version" in person. Oh, and about the ball...my friend Barb from Idaho sent it to me in the mail, stamped, addressed, decorated and even with a Delivery Confirmation sticker on it! And although I bet it's been (perhaps inappropriately) played with in countless places (just like ME!), it still has at least SOME of its' bounce (also, just like me!).
