Ukiah & The Wedding 4-14-08

It has been awhile since you’ve heard anything from me. Just day to day living in Fallon, not much exciting to talk about there right now.

Last week we headed over to Ukiah, California for a week. Traveling is an expensive endeavor with fuel prices right now. Diesel has more than doubled since we hit the road four years ago…ridiculous! It cost us $112 for 26 gallons of fuel on our way over here.

Ukiah is in Spring-swing right now and I have to keep stopping on our daily walks to admire something new! These pink flowering Dogwoods are huge and stunning. I didn’t have my camera with me today so I can’t share the long expanse of Wisteria in bloom that most people will miss seeing as it is behind the Library along a driveway and you pretty much have to be walking to see it.

We have been busy the last few days with our Daughters and our Grandsons. We had Ian on a sleepover one night and Seth over the next night…no we did not have them both at the same time….no, no, no…we are not that crazy! The trailer is too small for that!

Yesterday was our oldest daughter Andrea’s wedding. She and Will did all the planning and it turned out beautifully. The location was a lodge on a small lake, the food was excellent and instead of traditional cake they had an assortment of Cheesecake…yum. They were keeping to a budget and wanted to keep the wedding small and manageable and they did a great job. They should do well together.

Michelle and Seth headed back home to Oregon today, and we spent the day relaxing. Andrea and Will are on their way to Kauai for a week. Tomorrow we hit the road and we have decided to head to New Mexico for a couple of weeks so you might hear from me a little more often the next several days.

The weather has been wonderful the whole week, in the 80’s every day, but today it has cooled down, been windy and now as I type this it has started raining! At least it waited until after the wedding.

Enjoy the pictures!
