Signing Off

I have not been good at keeping this journal updated and I think it is about time to sign off.  This is the 6th anniversary of Sally's death and I still miss her a lot.  But being with Val has made happiness again possible.   

We have been spending some time each week going to Wimberley, TX to our house there.  Val has been gardening to her delight and we are getting vegetables already--lots of lettuce, some early squash and tomatoes and some peppers.  Also there are flowers and some new trees in the yard.  We need to figure out how to keep it watered and alive through a Texas summer which is pretty brutal.  We have had a lot of rain this year and areas not far from us have flooded in Sugar Land and Wimberley.  I think we are pretty safe though.  

We are going to our grandson Nathan's HS graduation and Stephen's College graduation soon.  Stephen's is in Golden Colorado in a couple of weeks.  We are only going for a couple of days and will see our friends Joel and Judy Bedford while we are there.

We will be heading out to California in early June and plan to get there in about a week.  We are planning to go to Palo Duro in Texas on the way and then to Moab, UT to see Arches and Canyonlands National parks before heading into California.  Should be fun.  Neither of us have never been to those places.

We hope to see our California friends and family this summer.  Both of us are still basically healthy aside from wear and tear.

Thanks to all of you who have followed this and have supported me and now us over these past 6 years.
Namaste.
