Reunited

Three years ago, when we made our trek across the country we took our time and made side trips.  One such side trip was seeing my dearest friend whom I grew uo with.  We hadn't seen each other for 20 years.

Ironically her mother, my mom's dearest friend was IN CA after the death of her grandfather.  So their reunion was post-poned until last week.  Mom's dearest friend was in town with my dearest friend's daughter to scout out colleges.

20 plus years of catching up to do.

Entertaining the kids was a bit of a challenge

Turns out the attractions for kids are weekends only

But they found stuff to do

maybe they are wishing for the attractions to open.

That's a big chicken

The birds were not chicken...at all.

Despite not having a whole lot to do, the kids were amazing and the reunion was sweet.  It's possible we may see them all in the winter.
