We all are able to now ski the intermediate slopes. Sam and Margaret have come a very long way this week. Today we skied from our side of the mountain. Katy is upset because her brother and sister are starting to be able to do things that only she could do in the past. Reese and Brandon came up and stayed one night with us and skied with us today. We stayed Saturday night and ended up stranded up there until Tuesday morning.
Margaret had an elaborately planned Scooby Doo birthday party. There were clues all over the house, in “ghost” balloons, a cryptogram, puzzles with secret writing on them. Katy and Olivia were the arch villains that would have gotten away with it had it not been for the meddling kids.
So, while we were waiting to see my dad every few hours while he was in ICU, we toured Jackson a bit. We saw the Frank Lloyd Wright house, Fountainhead. We also saw where Eudora Welty lived most of her life.
