After bidding my Grandpa farewell on his road trip, I spent a lovely day with my grandma. (Pictured here in front of their newly remodeled 'fireplace'. Aren't they darling!?)I got in some sun and some exercise cleaning around the house. We went to lunch together, watched Alice in Wonderland, ate dinner at Olive Garden. Once we got home we went on a stroll around the block. I spotted something on the ground out of the corner of my eye and was rather startled. Not knowing what my grandmother's reaction would be, I advised her to take a few more steps forward, then asked her to turn around and confirm that what I was seeing was, in fact, a tarantula! I had never seen one 'in the wild' before! What an exciting thing! Now to help up-date her Mp3 player and get to sleep at a decent hour.
Tomorrow I'll hit the road home, stopping along the way to visit my Ulmer family in Mena, AR.
It is the whirl-wind tour and I'm so glad to be on it!
