Ready to Go Home

Dad is waiting for us to hit the road Thursday morning for his 9:30AM flight to Seattle. He had a short delay in Seattle, but no problem for this seasoned traveler.

Stan picked dad up from the airport and they went to dinner. I called about 8:30PM and they were just getting in. Long day for dad, but he sounded energized to be home.

It is always bittersweet when dad leaves. I know how much he misses his routine and his own home, but there is an emptiness when he leaves. Today the kids and I will wander around missing Poppa a lot.

Willy, on the other hand doesn't understand where Poppa went, they were inseparable. I think Dad should get a dog, he enjoyed Willy so much.

We miss you dad and look forward to your return!
