Mom and Dad enjoying a milkshake. February 12, 2010.
The snow and cold of the past two weeks have pretty much kept my parents holed up in their house in Hendersonville. Friday our friends Judy and Charlie, who live in Hendersonville, took Mom and Dad out for lunch at a fast food restaurant. Mom and Dad enjoyed the hamburger and french fries, but the milk shake was obviously a big hit as well. Charlie took and sent us this picture on his cell phone.
********************
We’re supposed to get some snow Friday night and more on Sunday night. I’m hoping to whisk Betsy away for a Mystery Trip between storms to celebrate Valentine Day. I’m also hoping that we can get back home without any problems. I can’t tell you where we are going since Betsy reads this, but the chances that the trip includes waterfalls are pretty good! We hope to be back sometime Monday evening.

Today I’m grateful for thoughtful friends who help without being asked.

You can’t buy friendship like that, George. You are blessed to have wonderful people like that in your life.
Your parents sure do look happy and that is also a blessing you can’t buy.
Have a wonderful time on your mystery trip with your Sweetheart 🙂
