"Time to leave Wisconsin..
Where should I go to next?
Check back soon and find out!" (So said, Gram G, June 15)
Well, it's not so soon, but its' been fun!
Here's a brief overview!
It's the summer of "Lulu and Georgia"!

18 Days/Many Adventures/Thousands of miles/Endless fun/Lots of family/Abundant love/Treasured memories...
Make up "the Summer of LULU and GEORGIA"
AKA...TGLGGSDA!
The Great Louisa/Gram G San Diego Adventure!
Last summer, when most things were shut down, Louisa chose to postpone her Gram G trip until this summer in hopes of being able to do fun things in San Diego. I reckon her decision was worth the wait!
REFLECTIONS
Tomorrow will be a week since the last of visiting family and vacation fun activities. I prepared since early spring for these events. I am still tired, though good tired. Already I feel like an isolated puzzle piece and must face "alone" life once more. The 36 people of my immediate family are the contentment of my life. I am the happiest when immersed in activity with them. I relish my mind being full of memories and my computer abounding with pictures to organize into albums, blogs and calendars! I can now leisurely and lovingly sort through the photos and relive all the fun times. That is, between accomplishing necessary daily chores and responsibilities. And, oh yes, it's great to sleep, eat, work, watch smart TV at my own schedule!
Love ya, my family!!
This has been a good three plus GeoGram weeks in the life of Gram G.
"A desire fulfilled is sweet to the soul..." (Proverbs 13:19)
