e continued to visit with family and friends. We drove to Los Lunas (thirty five miles south of here) on Friday to visit with 1HW's sister Sue and husband Mike and their three sons and families. James is married to Candace and they have a 2 1/2 yr old daughter 
Cammie. James teaches English on the Navajo Indian Reservation and is in his fifth year of teaching there. Matthew is married to Heather. Both work and go to the University part time. Matthew is employed full time in the Air Force Reserve and has been on several rotations to Iraq. Charles is completing his senior year at the University while working full time. It was a delight to see this family together and to be able to spend an evening with good food and conversation. 
Last eveni
ng HW2's sister Susie and husband Al hosted a family get together for her side of our family
. Brother Herb and his wife Sue joined us and the six of us had a great time. We had not been together for a long time, as we are seldom in the same city, much less the same state or country. Susie fixed a great dinner of steak, twice-baked potatoes, salad, and fresh fruit for dessert, and the conversation kept up non - stop throughout the evening. 
Saturday morning we met long time friends Cal and Susan at our fa
vorite Mexican restaurant, Loyolas, for breakfast. HW2 is gradually getting her red chili fix. This time she had huevos rancheros. I stuck to eggs and pancakes. Two hours later we finally left after greeting the whole staff that has worked there for many 
years and seeing other friends from the antique dealer world, too. We have traveled with Cal and Susan on a barge trip through the Bordeaux, wine growing region of France. What a marvelous trip we all had, and the wines were enjoyed by all. We may yet get together for dinner this coming week as we have not finished talking to each other. So it goes. Happy travels!
