Hello,
We are both home again from our Utah
trip. Miriam, Olivia (age 7), Nora (age 6 in a week) and I all rode home
together. In Iowa we needed to stop the mosquitoes from biting so bug spray was
required. One of the girls asked, “If it is bug spray why don’t we spray it on
the bugs?”
Another girl said, “Why didn’t the
mosquito die when it sat on my arm with the bug spray on it?”
No, or few mosquitoes can be found in
Utah. Such an Iowa education! In spite of the bugs, I love the green of the
countryside.
Books on tape are great companions for
a long road trip. When the story was rolling all was quiet in the car.
Miriam can drive the long distance. The
new car with six forward gears and a little different touch was not for me,
Miriam thought. I did not force the issue, but almost wish I had as I wondered
how it all handled.
Leroy was home before or about lunch
time on the day we left and we took two more days. Which is better? It depends
on your purpose.
I am happy to be home, but still a bit
tired. I worked seven hours today. Tomorrow I need to do laundry and grocery
shop. Plus those gardens might require a bit of care. I did stop and pick
mulberries on the way home from work so that left little time to relax.
Paula
