Family news from last couple of weeks

I haven't been posting as often as usual, because my mom was here for the past 11 days.  We spent all our time working on her life story and shopping at Goodwill and yard sales and eating.  It was a pretty good time!

She flew here Friday Sept. 2, because she wanted to take advantage of the 9 days that Wayne was going to be away from home.  He had planned his Dream Vacation for over a year:  he was going to drive in his convertible along Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway for 7 days all alone with nature, then attend the hotrod show with his brother in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.

Alas, Tropical Storm Lee arrived smack on top of the states he was planning to drive through, so he had to postpone his trip by 3 days to miss the deluge of rain.  Therefore, he was only gone Tues. Sept 6 through Sunday Sept. 11.

He has been back for 3 days, and my mother left this morning. So now I have lots to do that I kept postponing until after she was gone.
