…a day makes.
The calm before the storm:
I baked, and watched the road. Then they all arrived! It is so great to have everyone here. It’s nice to like one’s family, as well as love them. 🙂
We lunched, and then hiked, some of us. Here’s our great hero (aka brother’s girlfriend’s mom), enjoying a quiet mountaintop moment:
Later, she and I figured out how to brine the turkey. It remains to be seen if it will actually work. Here’s hoping.
Jello salad is made, perishables are in the fridge, many bottles of wine have been emptied, and Mark is asleep in that bed, that one just there, a few feet away.
So why am I here?
