Once in awhile-now and again-this is us

we spent our last night in lee vining at a nice campground with a small view of mono lake. as we passed the lake I took a few pictures.

we had pastries from homage to have for breakfast.  did you have your scone for breakfast ted?  we had a two for two. and you probably had a one for one. in reno it was always two for three. it wasn’t the same without you.

we also had an apple from your tree

we had a very uneventful day of driving. we stopped at a vista point in the owens valley.

we’ve learned a lot about glaciers this trip. I guess they really did play an important role in shaping the earth.

I think I found the blue dick ray

we got mcdonalds in lone pine for lunch and  parked in some shade. this poor old horse was out in the hot sun all by himself.

mt. whitney in lone pine

this is what 2 1/2 months of mail looks like. plus we found more on the front porch that linda had taken care of.

this is how much is junk

it was sad and nice at the same time to come home. we sat on the porch in the evening and all the neighbors came over and we had a party on the porch. it was sure nice to see everyone and give them hugs. of course midas was there too.

so I guess this will be my last post for this trip. we have another trip planned for November. it will be our 52nd anniversary and we plan to go to texas to have thanksgiving with some old friends and see cousins. that is, after we go to las vegas to have another star tattoo added to our arm, and no telling what else.

but you never know what might come up before that,

so stay tuned
