California heat

Well, we're done with the first leg of this summer adventure. We left Grandma and Grandpa's house yesterday. We had a great time visiting with grandparents and all the aunties and cousin Carolyn. The kids went bowling, swimming in a spa and several sleep-overs. They had a great time. Abigail had mixed feelings about leaving. She's looking forward to the next stops, but was sad to leave the family.

Rich was ready to move on. So, now, we're spending some time with Grandad and Grandma Vicky. We're going swimming this afternoon. Not sure what else we'll do while here. It's a much quieter pace of life, which is a nice change for me to recharge my batteries.

Richard reports that Maisy's ear is gettng better. So, that's good news, too.

Unfortunately, no new pictures to share. I'll have some after we get home, I think.
