One of the most heartbreaking and hard consequences of “the situation” (see the msontag.com blog for discussion of that) is I have been unable to do my regular Boise trips to visit the grandchildren.
This is time with them I will never get back — I feel this deeply.
And so it is hard to convey how amazingly wonderful it is to have them suddenly appear here in Montana for a long weekend. WOWZA.
Sparkle and the rest of the animal kingdom are also so happy to see the kids (almost 6 and almost 4)…
…although three of the cats prefer to observe them from a distance. This causes Lincoln to ask me repeatedly how many cats I have, as if he doubts me when I say four.
Yesterday involved hanging out…
…or trying to hang out…
Missoula has an amazing carousel — we did that and I do mean “we”…
Lincoln and I grabbed that brass ring!
Back at home, Berkeley declared that,”Grandma’s house is the best hide-and-seek house!”
Ice cream was involved — of course…
Summer Fun Indeed.
