On Being Tourists

R & I spent a very enjoyable weekend in Lancaster. Something of a birthday celebration. JS & A stayed at home with Aunt W; JR went along and stayed at Uncle D's. T'was a peaceful drive with only 1 of 'em along, and the fall leaves made nice scenery. Last week I was miserable with a flu bug, but thanks to the miracle of Emergen-C, I was feeling much better by the weekend.
Way back in March we booked tickets for Joesph at Sight & Sound. Never been there before in my life. Quite a place! Impressive crowd control. Loved the show's emphasis on forgiveness. Enjoyed the simple jailer character with the funny laugh. Stayed overnight at the B&B run by a Hillcrest alumnus. Brief reconnection. Attended church and had lunch with a long-time friend. Way back when we were 8 & 9, she lived in one state and I lived in another, we were pen pals; now she lives in my state and I live in hers and we're old & wise mothers of children. haha We haven't seen one another very often over the years, so it was a delightful visit. Thank you, D!

Sounds lovely. The story of Joseph is ageless. If only I could forgive more readily.

It was very special to have your here, Cheryl! I did think of that, too, that we have switched states. How funny is that! :)
