Family Matters












My brother Chip and his wife Betty head out in their RV every years and drive to Montana for a bit of fishing. They REALLY fish. They also have the trout smoked and jarred. Last Christmas, they sent one along with the other presents. It was delicious and almost tasted like smoked salmon.

They began their trip last Wednesday. I got a text from Betty yesterday that they had already caught 35 trout. What is different this year, is they are going to swing by our state for a visit on their way home. We are all meeting at my sister’s house near Sacramento for a day together. It is not often that we are all in the same room! The last time was almost two years ago for my mom’s 80th birthday.

We are going to have lunch at a restaurant where we can just sit and talk for a few hours, head to a local casino for some fun and really just hang out together. I am so grateful to be in a family where there is no drama. I am looking forward to spending some time together.
