The Mail Run!!!

Friend, Judy Lyman, contracts with the postal service to do the mail run to several remote areas in San Jan, Garfield and Kane County.  Today, I went on the mail run with her.  After six hours and 291 miles and lots and lots of talking and laughter, I returned home.  It was a delightful trip!!!  Thanks Judy!!!  (P.S.  I saw so much scenery.  I love this area.  San Juan County continues to grow on me!!!)

Our Eighth Anniversary!

Mike and I celebrated our 8th Wedding Anniversary yesterday (March 8th).  Wow, the time has gone by so quickly!!!  I bought Mike this pop from that was popular in the 1950’s.  Mike loves nostalgia and I knew he’d appreciate this simple gift!  We went to lunch at a local restaurant and reminisced about our wedding day – which was wonderful by the way.

 

Mike, I love you!!!
