the remaking of a kitchen

we are back.....we arrived home (early!) on wednesday night and judy was our faithful taxi driver. it was good to get home, of course, but always hard to leave the family in california. david called wednesday morning and we met he and siena at aunt mary's where jewlee was working one of her shifts. :) brunch was great and siena kept us entertained....nunu joined us for a bit and jewlee too, with frequent interruptions to help other customers.
it was really a great visit....we did so many things. one thing we will NOT do again is plan a flight that arrives around midnight. there was confusion about the rental car which was finally fixed and other issues too, but we finally arrived at pat's b and b around or after 2 am. good grief. of course we did not sleep immediately and it may have been closer to 3 (make that 5 our time) when we finally nodded off. we awakened early and then got the word to meet jewlee and siena for breakfast at rick and ann's at 9:30 or earlier if we could make it. we had a cup of coffee with pat and then hoofed it to the restaurant. more later
