Our Visit With Granny

About 12:30 AM, at a truck stop just beyond
Madison, WI. We ate breakfast, not even as
good as the Perkins, but I missed the exit, kind
of blurry eyed.

We picked Granny up after lunch on Thursday.
We took a drive over to Northfield, back through
Cannon and then to Welch and back. MJ brought
a lap top with and she showed Granny pictures
of the L's, well, mainly of M. We fixed a pot roast,
potatoes, carrots and a salad that we ate for dinner
with Granny. We had purchased rice pudding
for dessert, Granny wolfed it down. Granny kind
of wolfed everything down. It was great seeing her
eat with gusto.


On Friday, we had Granny over for a pizza, her
choice, lunch.
On Saturday morning, A and B came down for
breakfast with G and MJ and a short visit with
Granny. It was great seeing them.

One final picture with Granny. Granny showed
her funny side quite a few times, cracking a few
jokes and timely aside looks. She said that she
was feeling a little shaky after her walk to to and
back from breakfast, so she was all covered up
and was using O2 when we got to the care center.
She maybe looks worse here than she was actually
feeling. She was just chillin'.
She was in good spirits and we all had a nice visit.
During our Friday evening visit, we cleaned out the
bird feeder that is just outside of her window and
on Saturday we filled the feeder with a bag of
wild bird seed. A gift that J made for Granny is
just behind and to the left of my great cranium.

On Saturday, driving through the Mississippi valley.

Driving over the mighty Mississippi. Traffic was
light to moderately heavy, but always moving right
along and we made good time!

It would have been great if all of us were together with Granny. She loves you all very much.
