Chad and the gang arrived bringing us lunch and gifts. The little man got a great bike and he immediately showed off his skills at tricks. This bike has pegs so the tricks are really going to start now. He was so happy. The little woman got a Shopkins Mall. Chad and Gina helped her put it together and she is just thrilled. And of course it had a nice box that made a toy for a bit also.
We had a lovely visit. I'm am very grateful to have them in our lives.
Then they headed to Portland....had a Blazer game to go to. And we headed East. Took a little over five overs to drive to Connell. We had to stop and have dinner along the way. Mostly it was a dark drive and we had some whipping winds from Troutdale to the Bonneville dam. I was almost considering turning back around. I could not imagine driving like that the whole way down the gorge. But it stopped and we continued on.
Our hotel was advertised as no frills and it really was. Rather old, but it was clean and that was all we needed.
