Had another wonderful lunch today.  This one was at Jim’s oldest brother’s house.  It was nice to see John and Trinny,  and two of their children Wendy and Philip, along with three of the grandchildren.  We all had a nice visit.

Came back to Tom and Sandy’s house and I took a nap.  It has rained most of the day and was the perfect napping day.  We will have dinner here tonight.

Tomorrow we will pack up and leave for home.  We are going to take two days to get home.  It is over a 15 hour drive so could make it in one day but that is too much for me.  I think we are going through Kentucky on the way home, but not sure what Jim has decided.  He will do all the driving so I will leave the decision on which way we go home to him.

It has been fun to see Jim’s family.  We hadn’t seen some of them since September, 2019.  Jim usually comes here once a year but with Covid our travels got delayed.  His family rolls out the carpet for us and treats us like royalty.

It will be good to get home.  Two more days and I can sleep in my own bed, take a bath in my deep soaker tub, and sit in my corner chair.  Jim will have to talk hard and long to get me to go anywhere else this year.

Grateful for extended family, grateful for rainy day naps, and grateful we head home tomorrow.
