The weekend of October 25th we decided to take off and go to Oakdale to meet our newest grand nephew Border Marion Rath.
I didn't really know how long it would take us to get to Oakdale until I looked it up on Mapquest (wow, 5 hrs, 57 mins.). Limo Man drove the first 3 hours and then I drove for the next two. I got a little lost at one point so we had to do a swing back down HWY 99 to correct the mistake I made. Limo Man was a little irritated with me because I woke him up and he wouldn't go back to sleep for fear that we would never make it.
We finally arrived and got to see Tyler and Marjean's new digs. Wow do they ever have a beautiful home in the middle of God's green acres. We had a great visit with Limo Man's brother and sister in law, Steve and Janet. We met the little guy Border and is he ever a cutie! He is Tyler and Marjean in every way! (I was really disappointed that I forgot my camera otherwise I would have had a lot of pictures to post).
The barbeque that we had was fabulous and we had some great wine and great conversation. Thanks so much guys!!!!!
It's a good thing that Saturday was a great day because Sunday didn't end up so well. I had a bit of a meltdown when Limo Man was backing into a gaspump and didn't see the little hispanic man behind us. I guess I yelled at him "Watch out, Watch out!!!!! and he didn't appreciate that.
Let's suffice it to say that I now know what my little phobia is called: Amaxophobia is a dreadful fear of riding in cars. So I guess from now on I either drive or I am banished to the campsite (aka the back seat of the Tahoe).
It is certainly a bitch getting old.....

Well, the little guy should have run a little faster. Don't ya know ya shouldn't walk behind a backing car. Even if he was there first. I spend half my time backing up when I make flower deliveries. Besides the back seat isn't so bad, thats why they call them back seat drivers...harder to reach back to.
