Home Again, Home Again Jiggity Jig!




We're back ! We had a wonderful trip, enjoying every minute of it. It was great to be in Jilly's lovely home and experience a "slice of life" Norwegian style ! We enjoyed a lot of sightseeing drives , soccer games , and warm family meals around the kitchen table. The weather cooperated while we were there, lots of sunshine and fairly warm temps. Jill has a wonderful , full life over there .......she loves her teaching job , loves the outdoor life style of Norway and enjoys the many friends they have. The next few posts will include photos I took while there with brief explanations of what you're seeing. Today's photos are of Jill's kitchen where we spent a lot of fun times.
Everything was in wonderful shape when we returned home Tuesday night. My Molly was there to meet us at the airport and gave us a ride home......it was great to see her ! Yesterday my Mom drove up to Auburn and I met her there. It was also great to see her !! And then............the stomach flu struck !! I was sick all last night and slept from about 3:30 in the afternoon until this morning. I feel better today and actually we've already been out and gotten 2 loads of firewood !! I think I even feel like eating something now.......surprise, surprise...... !
