This spring has also seen a slight relaxation on the restrictions in care facilities, which prompted us to bring Susie’s mother to our home for my birthday last month — a real treat for us all. Then for Mother’s Day Dick and Dorothy drove out from Massachusetts to spend a few days. We brought Bernice here for dinner and a couple of lunches during that time and a couple of rousing games of Scrabble were played as well.
Back to the future: This week we leave for New York stopping in Prattsville to have lunch with the Archers before pushing on to Douglas, Mass and D & D’s home. Friday we plan to drive into Providence to visit old haunts and to see Lee F. for late lunch and wind up with dinner at Andrea F.’s place. Lee worked with Susie at Hope Artiste Village and Andrea and I worked together at Johnson & Wales. D & D will join us at Andrea’s for dinner.
Saturday, D, D, Susie and I drive to Portland to meet Joyce, Susie’s sister, for lunch. Then it’s back to the Boston area and hopefully grab a cup of coffee with Uncle Frank.
Sunday we’re off to Vermont, stopping at The Clark in Williamstown, Mass. (we have advance timed tickets for 12 noon) before driving up Route 7 to Rutland for a couple of nights. That evening we will meet up with some members of our old wine group for dinner and the next day Susie reconnects with some of her colleagues and friends from her hospital days.
From Rutland it’s off to Watertown, New York, for a couple of nights with the MacDonalds before heading back to Grand Rapids.
Stay tuned!
