We had a wonderful time with Bob and Mary.  They wanted us to stay longer but we needed to move on.  It was really nice to see them and I'm so glad we made the effort not to stay on I-10 and bypass them.  Bullhead has grown since we left but still has beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

We, Carolyn and I got on the road around nine and had no problems on our way to Claremont.  We once again had a good time with Kumi and Casey yesterday and are looking forward to many more days of enjoyment seeing friends and family.  My great niece came home in the evening and it is so good being with the three of them.

I don't know what's on the agenda or if there is one for today.  We sort of wing it while we're here.   I know I should go see my sister today.  I called her yesterday and she's ailing a little (cold I think) and hopes she feeling better today.  It's nice to get away from the trials and tribulations of the world and just try to enjoy being with people we haven't seen in a couple of years.  Saying that you won't get any politics today.  Tell a stranger "Merry Christmas" today.  Please use Christmas and not happy holidays.  UGH.
