OK...its been 14 days that I have been prepping for graduation & vacation, then just vacation....on vacation....DRIVING....and then Ginny's funeral.
I am tired....bone tired!
Vacation was awesome! I feel in love with Washington State....even some parts of Oregon....but, I want to live in Washington! But, the one thing I didn't like....and Sophie thought I was weird for thinking it...but the days seemed longer. It was still light at 10pm. Odd. And when I was up at 4am....it was light????? Why??? If it has something to do with the time change....you know you can just keep it to yourself...don't mess with my head!
So, we had a great hotel just at the entrance of the Seattle/Bremerton Ferry. It served a pretty nice breakfast, coffee was YUM-O, and they had the most fascinating fountains that Nash just loved! Oh, and the beds....comfy! It was a Hampton Inn just in case you are interested! Million star rating!

I just loved Washington.
 |
| we spent time at a Mall. Uncle Nash & Chloe were buds! |
 |
| this is where I want to live |
 |
| Pike Place Market....amazing! |
 |
| Nash and his obsessions! |
|
|
I loved spending time with Liz & Chloe and seeing the sights. I miss them
 |
| as we are getting ready to leave for Portland. |
Then on to Portland to see Toria!
 |
| It was Fleet Week....the look in Toria's eyes |

First night we went to downtown Portland and had dinner....and look at cute boys. Very fun.
 |
| shopping at WalMart to decorate Toria's room |
 |
| Wow...look at those cool new tires! |
 |
| And yes...Mom does a great job on her room! |
 |
| little Toria, the big sis and big Sophie, the little sis |
|

I had a great time with Toria....I adore her!
So, we came home and then Sophie and I headed to Santa Maria for Ginny's funeral.
It was sad for me. It was sad to watch my daughter have to be in this situation. It was a Deja Vu thing for me....same place I buried my husband. I cried.
I had a long talk with Mike about the final part of her life. It was sad but it was her.
I miss her.

| after lunch....Maureen, Ginny's best friend, Vera, a very good friend, Mike her son and Sophie. |
