A Visit From Aunt Maggie! (and uncle clark too...)

We had a very special surprise today, when Cindy's aunt and uncle* from Wisconsin (motto: Behold The Power Of Cheese!) made an impromptu visit to Western Washington. We had to drive down to Chehalis to see them, but it was a great visit! For me, it was the first time meeting them, and they were every bit as wonderful as Cindy has told me over the years. Maggie met me with open arms, saying "I've been loving you from a long ways away!" to which I replied that I'd been loving her right back... Clark* used to sing in the "Gospel Way Quartet", and there was a bit of a reunion going on at a friend's church down in Chehalis. So they flew in today, practiced this afternoon, had dinner with us (thanks, Clark* - the 32oz T-Bone and chocolate cream pie were phenomenal!), then the show tomorrow, and an early Monday flight back... We miss them already, and it's only been a little over an hour since we parted.

Who knows, maybe in a few years we'll buy a little dairy farm out in their neck of the woods and be neighbors! (hey, it could happen!)

Have a safe journey home guys, we love you!!

* Clark left Wisconsin without packing any underwear. Although he denied rumours regarding Huggies Pull-Ups, he seemed to crinkle when he walked...
