A grand visit

We have been thoroughly enjoying our visit with Maurice and Anne. We have played cards each evening and wandered a bit during the day. On Friday we visited brother Gary and his wife Donna. They were busy taking care of four of their grands. Then we had lunch at an Italian restaurant and then home.

Yesterday we went to Owego and visited a museum that was featuring decorated Christmas trees and wreaths. You could bid on each and if you won the bid take the decorated item home in time for Christmas. They were very well-decorated, and although we did not bid on any tree, we did enjoy looking at the many many decorated trees. Then out for lunch this time to a different Italian restaurant and then on the way home stopped in Newark Valley to see their decorated wreaths. What fun. Last night we again played cards and then off to an early bed. Foxy has a cold and the rest of us are trying to avoid catching it, but I might be starting it.

We have decided to stay home today rather than expose others to Foxy's cold germs. It is a joy to watch Max and his Uncle Maurice play. I think Max would like to stay here forever. Happy travels.
