Road Trip

    Hero was sent on a business trip the last week of August.  Much to our excitement, he got permission to take us along. So we headed North on familiar routes to Boston.  More specifically, to a beautiful address on River Street....and my darling big sister.

     We had a lovely time-- mostly tiding up, hiding our stuff and leaving--because they are in the process of selling their house and showed it frequently while we were there. A little crazy, but makes for bonding anyhow! One day we went to visit a sweet mutual friend, enjoyed some time at Buzzards Bay and ate the most amazing fresh fish-n-chips.

 We also spent the afternoon at the Orgill show with Hero;  just to be amazed, and hopefully help inspire his decisions.

                           Public Transportation is always a favorite of our visits to the city.

   We took a walk through downtown and popped in on our Own Minstrel's place of employment--the Old State House, no less. (See it standing bravely at the end of the street?)   Never have I relished the city like I did this time. Perhaps it's the sense of "one-last-time".

      The last night of our visit, Sis and I sat on the couch chatting over icecream. They have a second cousin boarding with them for a month and as she passed in the hall we invited her to join us. Its invigorating to chat with young people who are full of dreams, new love, fresh hopes! Soon Blaze joined us and it wasn't long before they were exchanging info and friend-ing. And that conversation, my jollies, resulted in a second (shorter) roadtrip and this:

Blaze bought her first car from her grandpa's cousin!  

Just loving how God answers prayers,

Zinnia Girl!
