They're Off!


 We said goodbye to Aunt Claire and Uncle Jim this week.  After 12 years in Vermont, they are pulling up stakes and moving to Santa Rosa, California with their dog Mandy to be closer to children, grandchildren and first great-grandchild.

Claire is my mother's identical twin and our families have always been close.  We're shared many happy holidays and dinners and vacations over the years.  At 84 and 87, Claire and Jim are making one more big move in their life of travels - we'll miss them, miss the card games, delicious pies and family stories. Thanks for everything - have a safe trip and a happy retirement (if you can slow down, which I doubt!).
