Vacation: Day 4 - Relaxing Visitation

Day 4 started with sunshine sneaking through the darkening drapes. It was beautiful but still chilly so we decided to do some antique-ing. However, because we never get to visit with Grandma enough, we decided to pick her up and treat her to lunch - her choice. Luckily she picked The Diner. After a filling lunch (I love their patty melts - yum) we headed back to Grandma's. The weather was beautiful and Grandma has an apartment with great views from her patio with 2 large pines and lots of bird feeders. We sat there for hours, literally, and chatted about everything from money exchange, espionage, embezzlement and birds. Before we could leave though Grandma gave us the best gift ever. She has a tradition of making baby quilts for all her grandkids once the arrival of their first born. Since Rick and I have remained opposed to the children front, Grandma decided to let us pick one of our own from the quilts she hasn't given away yet. What a nice surprise!! It wasn't even a disappointment to skip the antigue-ing. I love Grandma and the precious time we can spend with her. Thanks Grandma for the absolutely beautiful handmade quilt. We love you so much!!



We finished the night by being treated to dinner by Rich and MaryAnn for Rick's bday at Pizza House. Yum. The perfect end to a great simple vacation.
