Fun P-day with wonderful friends.

Sister & Elder Morrison from Northern Utah, headed home Tuesday, we love you and will miss you.
We enjoyed the Yummy luncheon with the Evans, Morrison, Clawsons
Searles, Norris's, Gilstraps, Farnsworths, and Kigins.
Erik, Silvia, Mama and us at "Rockland House" for dinner.

We were up early and headed down to Scarsdale for the Senior Couples luncheon at the Mission Home. We are saying goodbye to dear friends the Morrisons. They will be tremendously missed, but we wish the very best for them as they head home to Northern Utah on Tuesday. We love you and will make the trip to Lewiston for a visit when we get home.

After the luncheon, we hurried back the 90 miles to Monticello to change and up then to Livingston Manor to spend the afternoon with Branch members and dear friends, Erik & Silvia Roberts & Mama Burgos. Off just across the Delaware River to PA to Honesdale to a Harley Davidson Store, then to dinner. Erik & Silvia both are motorcycle lovers, HD lovers. Doug was in heaven. It was an awesome store. Doug found him a heated vest and gloves, a must after chatting with Rex from home and comparing prices. A real steal. (I really don't think anything with "Harley Davidson" on it is a real steal.) We had a wonderful afternoon and then to Rockland, near Livingston Manor for dinner at the very place Erik and Silvia were married. "Rockland House". We are so blessed to be surrounded with wonderful friends who are like family.

Sacrament meeting was wonderful. we had a record 47 people there. Erik talked about the importance of surrounding yourself with good friends, for he said: "friends are family you get to choose." And I believe that. How blessed we are to have family here in New York as we are far away from our family in Utah.
