In a few hours we will be leaving Bolton for the great northwest.
It has been a short 4 1/2 months, but the yearning to see our girls and Fred is overwhelming.
Saturday, we turned the coach around and put it in Mike's driveway. We are now headed out, so we can hook up the carand just pull out.
The coach has been under trees since our arrival and the coach was filthy. I spent about 2 1/2 hours just on the roof. I did not complete the washing, but got 3/4 of it done.
It was hot and humid and I didn't have a dry stitch on me when I finished.
Brenda got the inside all spic & span. She also got most things packed away for the trip.
We had long goodbyes with family and friends yesterday. After church, we went to breakfast with the Breakfast Club, came back home to finish washing the coach and car. We then headed b
ack to church for the annual parish picnic. But this was also a goodbye to Fr. Mike. He has been transferred to Paris, TN. and is leaving the end of this month. He has been at the parish for 7 years. He and his humor will be missed by all.
We got to see and say goodbye to those who couldn't make breakfast, and Bev, Richard, Jessica, Vickie and Rena were there also to say their goodbyes.
Adam, Crissy, Rachel Brian and Austin came over last night to say their goodbyes.
We are so lucky to have such a loving Memphis family. Along with a great group of friends.
Alan, Ann and Jen will be at the nursery this morning, so we will say our goodbyes to them just before we leave.
It has been a wonderful time here and we will miss them all, but family calls.
Ta ta for now.
