October 5, 2016. San Antonio, Texas. Logistics.

The plan worked perfectly.  David had a meeting in Philadelphia, and was to leave at noon today, so he drove our truck to us at the motel and we dropped him off at the airport.  Our visit with David was short but sweet.  He will come to the ranch this weekend bringing the twins and their friend Grace.  The plan worked well with the truck..

This evening we had dinner with Suzanne and the girls.  Everyone looked great.  I brought them necklaces carved by Bruce Smith who lives on Sand Beach Road in Liverpool.  They loved them.  They chose  from the collection.  Of course, we left one for Sarah, who is at the U. of Texas in her Freshman year.  We stayed too late talking with Suzanne after dinner.  Ken does not like us to drive at night, but we did manage to get back to our Motel in the pitch dark.   He does not enjoy driving at night and he suspects I do not see well in the dark so his rule is to get home before dark.

Tomorrow we will drive to the ranch.  The traffic in San Antonio is a long way from driving in Nova Scotia so we will be happy to be in the country.  On the way, we will stop and look at a new Subaru.  They have many safety features on the 2017 model and Ken thinks we need every one.  We will see.  One thing we know for sure and that is we are happy to be in Texas to be with our family.
