Eugene airport —early
June 14 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 46 °F
Flight to PDX will only take 26 min. Not enough time for much of anything. But should be on time for my narrow layover windows to catch next flight to ATL. Then I will have several hours to eat and watch shows…. Or sleep if I’m lucky. 🥱Read more

Flight was fine. Exit row has lots of legroom. This airport is huge. After landing, we taxied for a long time. We must have passed 7-8 terminals….all totally Delta. I got off at gate E and ride the tram a long way to get to baggage claim. I’m not even sure this is my flight I’m waiting by the carousel for.
Oh, it was and I got my bag.
My brother just texted and said my mom missed her flight and is now taking red eye. 😞
I feel so bad for her. That kind of stuff can be really tough for her.
He will come pick me up now.
I watched two movies on the plane: Last Breathe and Mamma Mia (Pierce Brosnan can’t sing). Both were Meh.
Gonna just walk around for about 45 min in baggage claim till he gets here.Read more
TravelerAgree, Pierce Brosnan can’t sing!!

Successfully picked up my mom at the airport . The Girls are up and active. Humid out, but I went for a short walk in their neighborhood. They have a nice house in a nice neighborhood with a nice Clubhouse area.Read more

Frog Rock Disc Golf
June 15 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F
Steve and I went here today. It was new course for each of us. It boasts the shadiest and flattest in Atlanta area. It was a good way for me to do my first full course since Sept ‘24. It was pretty hot and humid so being in sun was rough.
Fairly short holes with only one par 4 (the sign photo). I had some good shots, some medium shots, and bad ones. See score card pic.
I tried to take it easy and not over do it. I’ll see how things are in morning. I think I’ll be ok with some Aleve. 😉Read more
David SalleeFingers crossed you're feeling ok after your round! I also see a birdie on the card. Awesome job!!

TravelerDid you end up feeling alright today from the disc golfing? It’s nice that you and your brother had an opportunity to get out and do that. It’s also fun to see the scorecard!

TravelerI did okay. I took a preemptive NSAIDs before hand and will probably keep that up a bit.

Marietta Square
June 16 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 82 °F
We went here for lunch. It’s basically a food court type place. So everyone got what they wanted and met in the middle to share a big table.
I had a falafel salad.
Then we walked to a nearby coffee shop to get the girls a birthday steamed milk with vanilla, supposedly tastes like liquid ice cream.
Now I think we are in for the day.Read more
David SalleeLooks great and the weather looks much better than anticipated. Great to see Mum-Z there too. Have a great time and keep the posts coming. :-)

After a couple fussy moments after their nap, they are settling into food time. Today is Bea’s birthday.
My mom, brother and I are trying our best to care for the girls while Colin and Emily work.
I went for a walk in the morning before it got too hot.
Gonna be a stay at home day.Read more
TravelerSo the twins have different birthdays?

Steve’s birthday
June 18 in the United States ⋅ 🌩️ 81 °F
Today is my brother’s birthday. He went for a bike ride this morning. The girls are at day care and parents at work so it seems uber quiet here. My mom and I are making him a Boston creme pie for tonight. We will go to dinner after they all get home.
I went for a walk this morning. Will have to get back into my exercise routine when I get home.
I’ll add more photos later.

Photos added from the Italian restaurant we went to. One video of the cake my mom and I made. It turned out just ok although flavors were good. Cake was a bit dry. There was a misunderstanding between me and the timer. I also had an issue with my video of us singing happy birthday. It has been a reoccurring issue this trip I’ll need to figure out soon.
I got the pasta dish (pollo basilico) and my brother got veal I think.
It was good.
Didn’t sleep hardly at all that night, possibly due to the chocolate close to bedtime. 🥱
Leaving in the AM for airport. It was a good visit. ❤️🎂🎂🎂❤️Read more

Atlanta airport again
June 19 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 81 °F
Waiting for our flight to board to Denver. Hoping to avoid thunderstorms. We had several yesterday.
Saw some fireflies and cardinals on the trip.
Plan to watch my downloaded movies on way home. Unfortunately my mom can’t login to her app so can’t see any shows.
I am looking forward to being home, setting my amazing husband, sweet kitty, and own bed.Read more
