We enjoyed a GREAT day today! After sleeping in a bit and lounging for the morning, weaving in and out of conversations, we left for a day in Provo. We had hoped to get some snow tubing in. Last weekend, the area received what we heard...
Well, I wouldn't necessarily recommend Virgin River as a hotel. Not a bad price, but the room was a bit step down from a Motel 6. I don't mind Motel 6 when I'm traveling on my own, but when Colleen is with me, I like...
After a great morning at church, we left town about 1:30 pm. We're headed to see Jonathan for a visit this week! Last time we did this drive in December, we did it straight through. Took us 13 hours, and while Colleen's joints did OK...
Wow! That's all I have to say about how long it's been since I've updated everyone here. It's a 80°+ WINTER day here in beautiful Southern California. It's quite something to experience this incredible weather while tracking the news of devastating storms and tornadoes throughout the...

Well, the final day of Parent Weekend at Heritage went very well. We picked Jonathan up Sunday at 9:00 am and then went straight to a session with our therapist. We reviewed the events of the weekend, sharing a number of details with him about...

We arrived in Utah Thursday a little after 4:00 pm Mountain time. We had originally planned to drive right to Heritage for a therapy appointment, thinking we were landing at 3:00 and could be there at 4:00. However, I misinterpreted the itinerary and didn't include...
It's the middle of the night as I'm writing this. I'm a sleeper, meaning I like my sleep. But tonight it evades me. Maybe it doesn't evade me as much as my stomach's rumblings keep me from slumber. Most reading this know of my challenges with...
