Sundays are
relaxing days for us and I wanted to go out to the rig and watch my races and
Lydia wanted to vegg out but first I vacuumed the house. We have a central
vacuum system here and it makes it really easy to move from area to area so it
didn’t take long. Lydia showered and ate
breakfast and then we vegged. About
5:00pm I got a text that they crossed the state line and were in Oregon. About 8:30pm they pulled in. With her dog Quincy, they made several stops
along the way but still managed the trip from OC to here in just less than 16
hours. They unpacked the car and we got
them settled in their rooms and we spent a few hours with wine and conversation
before we all turned in.
Monday, July 31st, 2017….. Tim’s
flight leaves from Eugene tonight at 6:00pm. So we decided to take a tour and
show him the area. We headed first to
Albany for breakfast at Elmer’s.
We drove
around that area and went to Habitat For Humanity. Tim works for the one in Torrance so we had
to stop to check out all of the treasures.
There’s another one in Lebanon but it’s closed on Mondays. Maybe next time… We headed back to Lebanon. Of course we had to go by Penny’s new home and
yes, the renters are still there with no sign of moving! We continued on to Sweet
Home, and detoured just a few hundred yards off of Hwy 20, to see Weddle Covered
Bridge.
We drove on to Foster Lake and then turned around and headed back and made a short stop at Walmart before heading home to rest for a while. Lydia fixed a chicken parmesan casseroly thingy, which was good (except that she didn’t cook it long enough so the potatoes were a little hard). We had to eat quickly in order to leave to make it to the Eugene airport (about 30 miles) in time for Tim to get to security check and get to boarding. We dropped him off and waited until he texted he was good to go and then we drove back home and kicked back for the rest of the night. Although it was a short visit, it was nice to be able to spend time with him.
