We took P to the airport this afternoon and really hated to see her go. She has been wonderful with Grandma. Why Grandma looks so much better she has some color in her face but she is still complaining (bad habit!) On the way back, we stopped at Home Depot to get the things going for her new carpet to be laid on her decks. Once it was paid for the installers will contact us and we can set a date. Hope it isn't too far away. They can only do it if the temp is higher than 69 so keep your fingers crossed!

One less thing to worry about. Your Dad is planning on going up there next week to take the old carpet off and the railings off. I will be very grateful when it's done.

Then after that we're hoping to run down to Nan's and family so your Dad can help Ben finish off his train set. And then after that it's plans for heading East away from her for several weeks!! We can wait to see you guys out there. Sure wish our peach tree would at least look like it was trying to get ripe - still green as gore. Oh great!! Still have beans coming on so we have to take care that we get as many as we can and the tomatoes too. We have put several bags into the freezer for a later time of canning them. I always make tomato sauce, which is great because there is no additional salt or anything else, just the tomatoes and a little water to help them cook down.

Be nice if we could get our garden cleaned out a bit before we come back so there isn't so much to do when we come home.

Talking w/ Grandma, she sounds more vibrant & awake. Wish P could be closer.

I finally broke down & bought a couple of peaches. They just don't taste the same as they do @ home. You'd think that after 17 years I could get used to peaches not tree ripened but I can't. sigh...

Wow! We can't wait to see you both out here! Just bring the peaches with you and they can ripen out here, right?? I am getting really excited to see you both. Love ya!
