Hanford!

I returned home this afternoon after spending a couple of nights in Hanford with Russ. Wow, is life going to be different for us. It was a lot of fun. He had gone up on Tuesday "for good" and was able to get his apartment on Thursday. Thanks to a couple of old Redlands friends (thanks Julie and Judy & Phil!) we have been able to furnish the apartment without having to buy anything big. It has been a huge help to us. Phil and Judy have also put up with Russ while he has stayed at their house during the days of July that he was in Hanford. They are great and generous people and it is going to be fun getting reacquainted with them. I think Russ spends WAY too much time over there and I tell him that they are going to be so sick of him by the end of the year. But, of course, Russ insists that they love him and Judy swears he isn't in their way. So..... I better just keep my mouth shut. :)

Judy supplied Russ with some essential house warming gifts. The three most important - coffee, wine and toilet paper.

We (or I should say, Russ) did make one major purchase. His dining room and kitchen all conveniently located within steps of the living room, bathroom, bedroom and front door!!

Phil has a 1963 Pontiac Bonneville, which, as you can see is way too sexy for us old people. But we drove it over to Judy's parents house anyway and we looked mighty fine in it.

Took a spin around the lake by Judy's parents in their pontoon boat. Perfect weather and a lot of fun.
