We were blessed again today to worship in this special little church in the Washington DC area. It always makes me a little lonesome for Ralph, knowing how he loved the church here. Of course, at that time the church was held at a hotel at Tyson's Corner and he never saw this place or knew of the accommodations available here. In fact, most of the current members moved here after Ralph and Catherine had moved back to Illinois - they only know OF him.
There were 12 people here, including us. I prepared the noon lunch. We had chicken salad sandwiches in multi-grain bread circles; fruit plate of grapes, pineapples, and cantaloupe; sun chips; and an assortment of mini-cheesecakes. It seemed to go over well with just enough left over for us to eat tonight and have some fruit to take with us on the way home. I had planned to take a picture of the table setting with food, and maybe with people also -- but just forgot to do it!!
We plan to leave on Tuesday afternoon. We're anxious to get back to a normal life. This has been a great trip, but we are lonesome and ready for a routine of some sort.

You really had a nice spread of food, Ada. It would be kinda fun to do a church lunch for just twelve people. I have really enjoyed hearing about all your travels and activities!
We'll be glad to have you back home! I plan to leave Wednesday morning for Oregon for several days. Preston and Perry will be here. Have a safe trip! --Carol
You have a safe trip also, Carol. We'll see you when you get home.
