TUCSON!!!

 I know.

I'm TERRIBLE about taking pictures.

I just finished teaching and now

I'm heading over to Nancy and Reid's house

to have a bowl of tortilla soup.

She's FAMOUS for this soup.

YUM!

And I'll try to get pictures, but EVERYBODY

will be there and it's a little crazy.

Speaking of crazy.

Yesterday, Reid had to go in for

emergency Retina surgery.

He had 2 tears and a slight

detachment to his retina.

So he is doing the whole

face down 24/7 for 30 days

except for bathroom break.

But the doctor was pleased

and he's doing well.

Chris' heart decided to act up

after he was outside in 110 heat

and 57% humidity (which is a LOT

in the desert) and dragging around

trash cans and doing other stuff

to help tidy up.

He may possibly be heading to the

hospital to check and make sure he's good.

It's been a little nuts.

But (as far as I know...)

Sondra's entire clan arrived today.

Some drove, others flew....

Nancy's Jeff and his girlfriend arrived safely.

(And are watching the StarShip launch with

a true insiders commentary!!!!! Wish I 

was there to watch!)

This is us in the jetway.

Sondra took a picture of Mom and I

yesterday, but I haven't gotten it from her.

I'll do better.

The internment is 9:00 tomorrow morning.

The funeral service is AFTER at 11:00.

(NOBODY wants to be outside after about

9:30 in this heat....)

Rod and Greg had the honor of going over

today and dressing Dad.

It was tender and difficult,

but Rod was honored to be asked.

OK.

I'll check in again.

Probably tomorrow afternoon.

And hopefully I'll have pictures.

Nite all!
