Rural Louisiana: Dubach
Autrey Log House
Ruston Farmer's Market along with old cemeteries made
for a relaxing first weekend while hanging out with the nephew.
We enjoyed the company of many people who are not pictured or named, but
we are forever thankful for their hospitality and friendship.
And, we missed many as we didn't have enough time....
Katha with one of CARLEY'S two new puppies we met.
These pups are book material.
Texas Touring
A trip to visit cousin, Kat, included Saturday in Dallas.
An honor to spend the morning at The George W. Bush Presidential Center,
I felt as if I were visiting one of my favorite public families.
Beautiful Cathedral Shrine of the Virgin of Gualdalupe in downtown Dallas
Cornerstone was laid in 1898.
With one of the dearest people to us in the world, our
friend Shirley, along with one of her grands.
Getting up very early, we drove to her house,
picked her up for church, then ate lunch before hitting the road again.
Lake Charles to Baton Rouge
After MANY years, I finally had the pleasure of meeting
Flint's Army buddy, Robin, his lovely wife, Kammy, and 2/3 of
their children plus pets.
Just part of Roy and Sandra's clan
I failed to immortalize Stephen and his growing family.
Thrilled that Rebecca continues to call
me 'aunt' as I had not seen her since she was somewhere in the age-range
of her two older children. What energetic and wonderful little ones!
Ruston Peach Festival
The Peach Festival always includes a quilt show
and an antique
car show.
I didn't realize it until later, but a cousin pieced and quilted the entry
on the right. All were beautiful and creative.
The overall winner just happened to be in the
shop and posed by her winning quilt.
Life-long friend Wanda
invited Posey and me over for
peach cookies and tea.
Love it when LA TECH friends Joe and Myra come to town!
It's a great excuse to overindulge at Rabbs if
a sports event isn't happening.
Flint and my sister have this thing going. He always
picks her up....even if she says that her purse weighs too much or
her shoes weigh too much, etc.
Lovely, relaxing evening with Keith and Stephanie
Keith and Flint's friendship go back to Flint's
high school days and Keith's early Air Force days in
Yokota, Japan.
We interrupted more LA TECH friends, Joe and Becky, although Joe had just
exited the hospital. So glad we did since we saw the newlyweds
and met Buckaroo!
Another Army connection
We knew Hondo in Germany. Now retired, we were
so happy to visit with him again and meet his lovely wife, Dianne.
(Looking back at the two Army pictures, isn't it odd that the
men's clothes 'match' in both?)
