Games

Not much happening today. We stopped by an RV parts store just to browse and left with only four replacement 12 v light bulbs. We stopped at Harris Teeter on the way to Terri's. They have a whole section of their bakery devoted to La Brea Bakery bread!

Terri and Molly and Ken and I played some games, starting with a few rounds of Coloretto. We played Can't Stop! which Molly professed to dislike--but won. Then we played Scotland Yard, with Molly as Mr. X. The detectives tracked down the culprit in short time, mostly by luck.

Terri made a couple of Gina's Skinny recipes for dinner, including Fiesta Lime Rice and Chicken and White Bean Enchiladas with Creamy Salsa Verde, both very delicious. Blake made the guacamole, using a kit from Trader Joe's.

Later we had decaf and brownies for dessert while we watched some of Molly's videos and photos on the big screen TV, via her Apple TV. She's really talented at photography and at editing and composing. I especially loved a video collage of Cate and Sam and Jesse set to Taylor Swift's Never Grow Up. Another favorite was a smashing video sequence of Molly with special effects that looked really professional.

We talked about Molly's plans to go to school in Portland and get a masters degree in midwifery. If she does that, she will be fulfilling one of her mom's dreams.

Tomorrow will be our last day here, and we're looking forward to a great visit.
