On the 8th, we went over to Veronica’s Apartment, took her out to lunch and then visited for a while. She is looking better than the last time we visited almost two years ago. We heard from our cousin, Amy, that her surgery had gone well the day before but that her daughter had to go home early. We found out our cousin Beth was flying in late that night to take care of Amy, so we arranged to pick Beth up at the airport and take her to Amy’s. The 9th was Veronica’s 89th Birthday and we took her to her favorite restaurant, Twisted Olive, where we were joined by her other step son Bob and his girlfriend Darlene. We had a fun meal. The morning of the 10th, we picked Veronica up and went down to Bergholz to visit with Aunt Joyce. We had lunch with Aunt Joyce and stayed to visit for several hours. The old family Apple Tree is looking pretty good for being mostly hollow inside. Aunt Joyce reminded David he had a couple of things stored there (Heart shaped medicine cabinet, iron rabbit) which we loaded up to bring home with us. She is still doing a lot of weaving for fun and she gave many pieces to both Veronica and Leslie to take home. Keira got a chance to run around off leash and work through some zoomie’s. We got a late dinner at Pappa Bear’s and dropped Veronica back at her apartment and said our goodbyes. It’s always hard to leave her.
