Last day in Central Oregon

Time is a strange thing. It moves fast when we want to slow down, it moves too slow when we want to hurry through something, and it sets us up for managing incremental spaces that would otherwise be what? Today, it was time for Michelle to get on a plane and head back to her home ground, Missouri. 

Sisters: Renee' and Michelle

But not without a few hugs and some conversation first.

Ben, Michelle, & Renee'

 Last night Michelle was able to spend some time with her sister, Renee’, her niece, Kendra Jo, (and Kendra’s fiance’), all three of the grandbabies, her nephew Tanner, and his fiance’, Julia. It made the last night of her time here special to her, and for that I am grateful. 

 We got some pictures in today, but most of the memories are locked inside my head, not on the camera, perhaps I will let them loose a bit later, for now, enjoy a few more smiles:

L-R: Ben, Michelle, Joanie, Keri (in front)

Too cool in her rose coloured lenses
