Among other news, Debra Sue Darling Gibbs flew in from Texas on 31 January. I dropped her off for her return flight this morning. As always, it is fun when Debby comes: much visiting, good food, and a movie or two. She also took advantage of "Dr. Pain" while she was here to get her muscles aligned and her back in place after packing children and luggage while helping Hilary get settled in Beijing. She had a good result from his treatments and may come back in a month or two for a tune up. We also got to visit with Jan Noble, recent of Russia, who is one of Deb's good Texas friends. Her husband was also an oil man; hence the time in Russia. Jan is a crazy-good baker; it was she who made the mountain of cakes for Alison's wedding.
This has been a snowy winter
The piles reached record heights
Millie and the wee babbies have the snow-shoveling gene
The inversion broke temporarily creating...
crisp and clean air
Ollie and Meg had dinner while their parents...
took the ward youth to the temple
Stew from the Christmas roast with Yorkshire puds
And yes, I shaved; many (including Kris) didn't notice
A beautiful winter evening at the Bombay House...
with Debra Sue
La Casita with Katy Kathryn
Saturday in SLC to see Quartet, visit City Creek,...
shop at Trader Joe's and Harmon's, and eat Greek food
Dinner at Sundance
A perfect setting for a good dinner
Still deep winter there
Jan, Debby, and Dickie
Jan, Debby, and Kris
Night skiing at Sundance (the skiers, not us)
That's all for now.
