Today we arrived home following a week long road trip to St Marys, PA where we visited with Mom's relatives. Uncle Albert and Aunt Diane were wonderful hosts. We got to see loads of nieces and nephews, including great-great nephew Gage, who was born this past January. I had fun playing with cousin Smokey, half shepherd and half timberwolf. Smokey is a gentle giant. A couple of times Uncle Albert took Mom and Dad out to spot elk. All they saw were deer, turkeys, a ground hog and a hawk, no elk. Of course on his drive home from work Tuesday, Uncle Albert saw three elk bulls. We had lots of fun and it was a very relaxing trip.
