2/15/10 Last am in Texas. It has been great... a short weekend as planned ... but a little shorter than planned. As Denny said, at least our over night at Houston we spent time together. Good to look on the bright side. We had a breakfast of hash browns, eggs, sausage, bacon, coffee and toast. (Denny's favorite Texas breakfast ... He could have it every day and never grow tired. Of course he could have it every day in Iowa too and never grow tired.) Then we went to airport to get boarding passes printed. We stopped at Gloria's for coffee. They were good friends of my folks for over 30 years. Before leaving we packed and cleaned the home. I think Denny lives for that. He moved every piece of furniture (sofas, chairs, tables, refrigerator, washer, drier, 3 beds). What a man. He puts me to shame. Gloria picked us up to take us to the airport about 4. Our flight got in to Omaha about 11. The drive home was pretty uneventful ...until Kiron ... Mark had said there was snow ... We stopped before getting stuck west of Barkers ... Drove past Curt L.'s ... and blasted through some drifts on that N-S road to come to a stop at the intersection of Pioneer and 300th. We put on our snow gear and walked the last 1 1/2 miles home. Welcome back to Iowa. Got to bed about 3 am. Good to be home???
