Priceless Visits

While Katherine and I were in Utah, I made sure we got to see My Uncle Bill, Aunt Mary, Uncle Lawrence, and Cousin, Darlene. These visits are so good for me. As time rolls on, I know that these visits are numbered.
It did not even matter to me that we ate at Chuck a Rama...
I was just happy to be with people who are dear to me.

Darlene and her dad, Uncle Lawrence
Me with Darlene and Uncle Lawrence. He lives in Ogden with his son, my cousin Lynn. I am simply amazed at how sharp Uncle Lawrence's mind is. His body is failing, yet he makes an effort to keep his mind sharp and stimulated every day. His eyesight is shot, his hearing is worse and worse, yet he does not use that as an excuse. He orders recorded books from the local library and has a machine that will magnify written words and pictures to a size he can see.
If you have a friend or family member you have been meaning to call or visit...don't wait.

REAL Lawn

Utah's Most Beautiful Yard...
My Uncle Bill and Aunt Mary get the award!
Front and Back, Their Yard is breathtaking.
Visiting my Uncle Bill and Aunt Mary in Utah is something I
always look forward to. We catch up on all the latest, we solve
the problems of the world and we LAUGH until there are tears
streaming from our eyes.
In addition to the enjoyable visit, I am always delighted to
tour their yard...the front and back. Every inch is manicured
and well tended. Living in Florida, I appreciate the REAL
lawn in Utah. I have to take off my shoes and let my bare feet
enjoy the velvet green summer grass. Ohhhhhh it feels so
nice on bare feet. I forget how beautiful the lawns and yards
are in Utah at their peak. Their perfect lawn and flower beds
are amazing to me. Their hard work shows in every inch.
I Love you, Uncle Bill and Aunt Mary!
Thank you for spending the afternoon with Andrew and me
and sharing your yard with us!
