Day-by-Day in HOUSTON:
- On Monday, May 14 we drove north to Spring (6 photos), looking for Allison. We found both she and co-worker Ronda at Kohl's. We also stopped to see Johnny and Kathy. The next day we again visited with Johnny and Kathy while we waited to have our car repaired - the front rotors needed to be replaced. Other photos show the view from the road or our motel.
- On Tuesday May 15 we drove to Joyce's (30 photos) in the afternoon. There we visited with Rebecca's kids (Dylan, Drew, Ella, Adeline), Emily's kids (Gavin, Anthony), as well as Joyce, Bill, and Emily.
- On Wednesday May 16 we were to meet Robert (9 photos) at his house. While waiting, Dianne got the call for us to meet him at Hickory Hollow in the Heights. Robert was looking good and walking well (following knee replacement surgery), and we had a good visit.
- On Thursday May 17 we did some shopping (8 photos) in Humble (Barnes & Noble, Target), and on Friday we mailed a letter at the local post office. The rest of the days were spent with our computers, catching up with news, and doing laundry.
- On Saturday May 19, we spent the day (16 photos) with David and Steven. We met at their house, drove to Baba Yega's restaurant in Montrose, went to the Menil Museum, watched a video, and then met Mark and Sharon at Tia Maria's for dinner.
- On Sunday May 20, we went over to Liz's (12 photos) to visit with Liz and Doug, Julie, Kurt, and Kurtie.
- On Monday May 21 we met Jennifer for lunch (24 photos) at Chuy's Restaurant. Afterwards we drove to The Woodlands Town Center and walked in Waterway Square, and through Hubbell & Hudson. Fun!
- On Tuesday May 22 we met Martha's cousin Betsy (9 photos) and her daughter Katie at Flora and Muse, a European inspired café in the Houston CityCentre. What fun!
- On Tuesday afternoon we stopped at Barnes & Noble and then drove to Joyce's (30 photos) for a second delightful visit with her family. This time both daughters, Emily and Rebecca, were there, as well as Joyce and Bill, and grandchildren Dylan, Drew, Ella, Adeline, Gavin, and Anthony. What a delightful day!
- On Wednesday May 23 and Thursday May 24 we went to the Woodlands (9 photos), remembering Janice as we ate lunch at Sweet Tomatoes, and saw a movie at Tinseltown - The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. She would have loved it! We miss her dearly. Visits to the Real Estate office, and to view condos, convinced us The Woodlands is not for us. Houston traffic at 3:30pm was....
