Bye Bye Laurie Chip & Dylan

We were on the road at 7:05 a.m. driving to Grand Rapids to put them on the plane.  Beautiful day for a drive - Dylan was very very good in the car.  We made one stop, and got to the airport at 10.  Lots of hugs all around.  It was hard to say good-bye.
Breakfast at Denny's, then back on 131 heading for T.C.   We were home before 1:30 p.m. 
We've both had a nap, and still feel a little groggy - I think it will take us a while to get back to normal.
Laurie called at 7:15 to say that they were in Chicago and on the plane to Miami.  They'll get home late.  They had a long wait but the G.R. airport had a video game room, so Chip and Dylan had fun. 
I see the Doctor tomorrow at 8:45 a.m.  Dick is coming along.  We'll probably go out to breakfast afterwards.
Doug and Odette are coming on Friday for the Van Pelt reunion on Saturday.  Dick doesn't want to go.  We'll just see them Friday evening I think.
