News from Mary-Claire

May 6, 2013:

Hi to Everyone:

Don, I and all the kitties arrived home yesterday afternoon, one day later than planned.  We left Thursday morning earlier than usual but the day didn't go as well as we had hoped.  The weather was a problem.  We had heavy head winds for two days.  Bad on the gas mileage.  

We stopped at a gas station to fill up in northern NM but the station was out of gas.  We sat and waited for the tanker to come.  We were lucky it only took about an hour.  Who would think a station would be out of gas?  There were three of us waiting there to fill up. Only in NM.

The second day (Friday) we had to stop west of Springfield, Missouri.  It was SNOWING  so hard it was difficult to see. Saturday was much better, only a little snow then rain.  Sunday was beautiful.  We got home about 1:00pm our time.  Everything is blooming here. The flowering trees are gorgeous and the spring flowers are in their prime.

Today is laundry, running around to pick up the mail and a little shopping  We leave Wednesday morning to go to D.C.  We then go to Philadelphia on Saturday to visit Lindy and Vince. Then back here to Michigan on Monday.  Then I am done.  It is to the garden. Surprisingly, things are in pretty good shape. I will send some pictures when I get a minute.

Hope your life is a little less hectic.
Talk to you soon.

Love
M-C
