On the Road Again.........

We don't need much of an excuse to go visit "our Kids" in Rocklin so when Christopher Ditty sent us an invite to his wedding we were on our way :o).


We took a detour just before Wendover to visit one of those places where we always say, "one of these days....." this was the day.


BIG DEAL!!!! but at least we went.

When you are the only car on the road it is a good bet you are in Nevada...and we were. A beautiful day!!!!!


Isn't it great to see the Reno Temple in the middle of the mountains.


A brother was with his sister.


And a sister got to be with her brother


And we all got to be with another brother's family

Here is Lilian with her daughter Erin and Brooke's two daughters



After spending the weekend with Alan and his family we "got" to take Tara to school in San Francisco, an unexpected bonus was to drive over the Golden Gate Bridge.


Then on to Pacific Grove.


The ocean was "wild" and we loved every minute.




We watched this Giant Egret (so we were told) hunt for Lizards for his lunch. As you can see he was successful. Poor Lizard.


Goodnight Sun, say hello to Elder Nielsen in Cambodia for us.....


Then time to go home...California was green in the Spring rains


2000 miles...we were tired....thinking twice about another "road trip" but after a few nights sleeping in my own bed aaahhh!!! we'll see...

Maybe Oregon?

Adventures await.......
"can't wait to get on that road again...."

Oregon? I would LOVE to go there.
I love all your pictures mom. I especially love the shout out to my baby boy all the way over in Cambodia!

Yes, Oregon!! But then you have to make the tiniest jaunt across the border to Vancouver, Washington, too! ;o)

Beautiful pictures and words to match!

Oregon, Washington, Montana, it doesn't matter as long as you swing by our house :-)
