To Texas and Back

Today I arrived back home after a trip to Texas to visit my parents. On this trip we took one of our granddaughters with us so that she could visit with her great grandparents. The trip started off with bad weather, but ended quite nicely. The parents were in good spirits, and the time with the granddaughter was delightful.

Even so, it is always good to arrive back home and unpack the bags. (As is often said, be it ever so humble, there is no place like home.)
