Ron and The Girls


Ron, Cory and Casey were here for a too brief visit this past week. They left this morning. Both girls start their school next Monday so they needed to get back to get ready for it.
Cory is at Berkeley and Casey is a Senior in High School. She is taking several college classes also. I forgot to ask which classes she is taking this year!
They will be back down for Steve's wedding so won't be as long as it was last time. It has been 18 months since they were able to come down. It was really great to see them again. There should be some rule that no one can live more than 8 hours away. They live about 16 hours and that makes for a very long drive! At least now with Cory being about half way Ron and Casey get to stay there for the evening before taking off again.
Ron was looking forward to enjoying some of the restaurants up in Berkeley area. He doesn't get much variety up in his area! He said there were lots of great places with great prices. He loves all kinds of food and loves to try new things.
Ron and I spent hours just sitting outside and talking and watching the hummingbirds and scrub jays. He can talk about all kinds of subjects that he has been reading about. He has always been a avid reader and now he uses the internet also so there is unlimited amount of information to learn.
Looking at the picture you have to know that it was taken on Grandpa's driveway. Casey is the taller of the two girls really. They are on a slope so Casey looks shorter. I'll have to find a better place to take pictures!!
I wanted to get one with Grandpa but he still wasn't feeling well so didn't stay outside long enough for me to think about taking the picture! Next time we will have lots of pictures.
