Yesterday was another day for saying goodbye to good friends. Gloria and Clayton hosted us and Clyde and Dori for a goodbye lun
ch at the Inn of the Hills. We spent a lovely hour and a half eating from their wonderful buffet. They even had brisket that was cooked properly, that is, not burned to a crisp like one of my recent efforts. Conversation flowed, and we learned that Clyde and Dori are still planning to go to the Dakota's for the beet harvest and then might travel to Tennessee or the Carolina's either to look for land or other work camping jobs. Clyde thinks that a work camping job should only last 4-6 months, which allows them to really see the area and then move on. I agree with this assessment.
Gloria and Clayton were perfect hosts and have become such good friends. We hate to leave them but know we will keep in touch. They are enjoying their latest grand baby and showed us very cute pictures. Dori and Clyde have a grand baby too, but they haven't seen it yet, as they were flying back here when the birth occurred.
Having eaten our way through the buffet, we then joined Lois and Dave for dinner at Mamacita's. This non-stop talking thing was continued, and time flew by with them, as well. We managed to eat, and wonder of wonders, I had gained some more pounds today. No one forced me to eat. I had better get back on my diet and quick. We will keep in touch with all of these friends through email, and who knows when our paths will cross again. Happy travels.
