One of the fun things about traveling is the chance to visit with friends! Don and I had hoped to have a chance to stop by and see our friends, Dave & Marie on our way from Arkansas to California in late April but we didn't get the chance since we spent a few extra days before heading out. Since we knew we would be coming back soon, it wasn't hard to realize that we could see them on the return trip! After a few extra days in Flagstaff, AZ with the alternator and our stop off in Fort Worth, TX to see Don's cousin we finally managed to make it to Melissa, TX! It was great to see Dave doing so well (he's been undergoing some recent throat cancer treatment) and Marie holding up as well! I can't even begin to imagine the stress involved when you find out your spouse has cancer and then being there to take care of them 24/7 while they undergo treatment! It looks like Marie has been doing an outstanding job since Dave looked so good! :-) Thought she might be able to use a short break though and left Don in "charge" one day while Marie and I went to lunch! Since Dave has a feeding tube, Marie hasn't really been eating too much since it's not much fun to cook for one! We both enjoyed our lunch and sat there and talked for HOURS! I hope Marie enjoyed it as much as I did!
It rained in Melissa as much as it did in Fort Worth while we were there. We're beginning to think it does nothing but rain in Texas! :-) The next day...in pouring rain, Don and I headed north to Cabot, AR! It wasn't too long before we out ran the rain. It was a pleasant drive with NO surprises or excitement! Thank goodness!
