The emptying of the nest...for a while

The time has finally come. On Friday morning Paul, Bean and I packed it up and headed north. We loaded up what Bean wanted to take to start a temporary volunteer job at Deseret Transportation and the humanitarian center in Salt Lake City. Later it should become a service mission for him. We stopped by and dropped off his tools and met one of the bosses and some of the other employees. They seemed like really nice people and it was a beautiful shop. We were very impressed. Then we went on to Bountiful to Juge and Lance's and unloaded all his home stuff. We had a great dinner with them along with Jay and Brynn. We visited, cleaned and played the train game. Bean is getting settled in.
Saturday he ran some errands and Paul, Lance and Supe (he arrived Saturday am) framed an addition to the pantry that is part of the remodeling of the kitchen.



Paul and I left in the late afternoon. The weather on the way up was perfect. It wasn't quite so perfect on the way home, but we made it with no problems. We stopped in at Lou and Bryan's on the way home to give Brady his birthday present and eat cake and ice cream with them.


Genghis was glad to see us get home. It's just the three of us now...until Supe comes home for the summer. The empty nest at last...for a while.
