On Our Way Back Home

It may seem a bit anti-climactic, but these two photos are the last ones I took on the trip! We stopped at Heather and Ryan's long enough to get Scott to a doctor, who put him on an antibiotic for a sinus infection -- thankfully, strep and mono tests came back negative. He doesn't look all that sick, does he? But maybe that's why Ryan's getting the best of him at Nintendo.

Then went on to Tara and Joseph's, where we sat around and watched Tara to see if she would go into labor. And she did -- just about 36 hours after we left! So we have yet to meet new Baby A -- although we already know she is just as outstanding as the rest of our grandchildren!

Don't quite know how to sum up the whole experience of this cross-country summer. Great experiences, yes. Wonderful to see our family, which is what motivated us to do it in the first place. Would we do it again? You bet -- and we undoubtedly will. But maybe in a few years . . . .

Thank you and good night.
