Sad But True

All good things must come to an end, and on 22 July I drove a car full of luggage and boxes to SLC International as Meagan and the kids headed to Hawaii for five years! Ollie and Meg were accepted into Punahou School and so Meags and Phil made the decision to jump. Phillip has remained behind for now to finish all the packing, storing, and to sell the house. I hope the move works out well, because we will certainly miss them. The next day, the Youngs headed back to Arizona, and the Hastings drove off to Reno for a week before their family reunion in Salinas, California. So we are alone again, naturally. Well, almost. We still get to have Phillip around for a little while. The end of July saw us meeting with family and old friends for various dinners.

 We will miss them

 They said Evy was driving them to Taco Bell

The goodbyes begin

A heartfelt group hug


This time, "I don't want to go back to Reno" was not heard

One last hug before the Youngs headed south

See you in the fall


Breakfast with cousin Millie Kay


Diner dinner with the Boyntons who were in town


Dinner with Leslie and Ray Taylor with Jacques and Diane Booth,
mission buddy and friend from my youth in SLC

It was a wonderful month of noise and confusion covered with huge helpings of love and fun. That's all for now.

A very fun month. Sad for it to end. And sad about those Taylors.
