The Visit.

This is the first chance I have had to update my journal in several days and I only have the time now because we had to skip church as Brandon is sick. He already had one bout with the 24-hour bug but it seems that another is making the rounds now. Sheesh. Poor boy. I managed to escape the last go round but I don't think I can possibly be that lucky a second time. Argh!

Anyway, I took K back to the airport yesterday. Sob, sniff...we had a great time but as Machello says in Holiday, "all good things come to an end". It always manages to end too soon. Having someone visit who isn't from your neck of the woods can sure make you appreciate your neck of the woods. Of course, we managed to have a Gate marathon while she was here. What visit would be complete without that!?! As you can see, Holiday was one of the eps we watched....LOL. We also saw a play, did some hiking at Fort Donelson, and visited The Homeplace. Friday was a terrific day for hiking and I am glad the sun did manage to finally show itself during her visit. Of course, the evening culminated with getting the chance to watch Sci-Fi Friday together. It is great to be able to watch Gate with a fellow *cough* enthusiast ;-)

Well having spoken to K and now read this I'm seriously bumming. *pouts* I really hope I can get down there and go to some of the places you both did. I laughed when she told me that you went to the famous "Log Cabin". You've mentioned that several times in conversation. And she loved your mom, I hope I get to meet her someday.

Sounds like good stuff.

I hope Brandon is feeling better. Twice with the crud is so not fair!

Yes, one of the things we discussed was the need to all get together again. And, I was thinking your girls would like the visits to Fort Donelson and The Homeplace. And, you know I had to take her to "da cabin" LOL. My Mom really liked her too. She went with us on our outing and had a great time as well. It really was a blast.

It is a good thing we saw the sun when we did because it rained all day Sunday and it is rainy today. Grrrrrrr. This is supposed to be Brandon's spring break! Brandon is better but I stayed home today so he wouldn't give the crud to anyone else.

Oh, how true that is! Sonia and I were able to watch the taped episodes of SG that we'd missed when I was visiting for the convention, and it was simply fantastic to be able to watch it with another "enthusiast". ; )

Sounds like you and K had a blast! Sorry to hear the little guy is under the weather again. Hope he's up and at it again soon.
