T-Ball Game on Saturday

Alex had a T-Ball game on Saturday afternoon while we were in Austin. It was too hot for us to go to the game, but we enjoyed seeing him put on his uniform. Photo is part way there....

It was a very good day! ;-)

Home to Emporia

Made the trip from Austin in the minimum ten hours. Had a great 12 days away; over 3000 miles, 7 states; 5 travel days, 5+ days in Utah, 2+ days in Austin!

I took the photo above, myself, by holding the camera out in front and snapping - got lucky!

Two working weeks left to retirement from ESU.

It was a very good day! ;-)

Photo at Pre-K Graduation

While the graduation was going on, Kaylee was one many younger brothers and sisters "failing" at sitting in their chairs... patiently... Grandpa was the "designated follower" - to keep Kaylee out of too much trouble. The photo above, was one of the more quiet moments, actually! Thanks to Arrion for this photo!

It was a very good day! ;-)

2 weeks to R day

Played with Kaylee most of the day. One of many photos... growing and learning every day!

Attended grandson Alex's Pre-Kindergarten Graduation Ceremonies this evening. As my work life ends, Alex's formal schooling begins in the fall. And the cycle continues, without end. A little philosophy there! Plenty of photos will be shared!

It was a very good day! ;-)

Arrived in Austin

We arrived safely in Austin about 4:30... played with Kaylee, a lot! Really growing and jabbers non-stop, even can pick up a few words, from time to time... Grandpa is in her vocabulary, and she uses it regularly. What more could we want?!?!? ;-)

Alex, his mom, Arrion, and Grandma talking Animal Crossing,Pitfall, Star Wars, etc. I showed him some Farm Town, and he was liked planting crops and selling things... ;-)

It was a very good day! ;-)

Thanks for a great extended weekend!

A big thank you to Larry and Annette, above at the Saturday Entrada Event, for a great extended Memorial Day Weekend at their home and nearby territory we visited in Utah for nearly a week. A few of the activities have been included in earlier posts.

We left early this morning, and twelve hours later are in Roswell, NM, for the night at the Holiday Inn Express. On to Austin on Thursday. Look forward to seeing you, Arrion, Ben, Alex and Kaylee.

It was a very good day! ;-)

It rarely rains in Utah...

We seem to have a direct effect on the weather in Utah when we arrive. It has rained every day we have been here - and, it rarely rains in this part of Utah! Average annual precipitation (rain/snow) in Wayne County is 7-8 inches!

Above, Annette has her camera out to capture the Rainbow, as well. We've had a great visit - but doing some things a little different than we originally thought. Went over to the Capital Reef Visitor's Center, yesterday, took picnic stuff, for example. By the time we got there, it was too wet to picnic, so did some sight-seeing, watched the good film in the visitor center, and returned to the house for our "picnic!"

It was a very good day! ;-)
