When Scott and Chris were boys they made annual trips to Uncle Pete and Aunt Janet's. I'm sure the remembrance of those visits, high points each summer, are part of their childhood happiness. They still talk about them. Now they are "paying it forward."
The 'company car' broke down just outside of Denver yesterday. Brayden and Chris just hiked across a field to pee while they waited for the tow truck driver where they saw a herd of buffalo. The Lexus dealer in Denver gave them a loaner and will switch with them when theirs is fixed. Ding said he's never had such a pleasant breakdown. The tow truck driver served also as a tour guide. We assume they arrived safely at their destination and went right to bed. Brayden says he someday wants to live in Colorado because he's never before seen such beautiful country. He will want this to be an annual trip, I'm sure. This is awfully nice of Uncle Ding, Aunt Shelly, and Uncle Mark Lary. (The are staying in Mark Lary's house in Colorado.)
I had a late phone call from Pete yesterday because he was in a meeting and was afraid he would wake us if they called earlier. It was a community gardening meeting. Pete is an accomplished gardener from all his farming years. It's still cold in Idaho too. Same in Missouri.
I'm waiting for more information on the wave runners from Dave and Liz and will post it when it arrives.
