Although the pessimists who run weather websites predicted rain during Wendy's visit, we enjoyed lots of crisp, sunny days. We went up to the Amish town in the north of the county and did the tourist thing one day, went to our favorite park (pictured here) another day, and enjoyed our other favorite park the following day. Our town might not be a major metropolis, but we have some very nice parks here! Of course Zarya thought spending multiple mornings at various parks was a great way to show her Nammie her new town.
Other grandmotherly treats for the adults included her making us an apple pie and spending her final evening here babysitting while we went on a date. Months ago we'd been given tickets for a fun event, but weren't sure how we were going to make that happen. However, it fell right during Wendy's visit, and voila! Off we went all by ourselves, knowing that Zarya was happily being read to, fed, bathed, and put to bed by a very capable person.
It's a long trip from Oregon to Pennsylvania, but we're sure glad that Wendy took the time to come visit. She didn't even appear to have any jetlag!
