I am considering renaming my blog...
"The WhenEverGram"
It is already past Valentine's Day,
February 16... 4 weeks since my last post.
But an eventful 4 weeks it has been!!
Thursday, January 19, I boarded a flight from cloudy Portland to San Diego for a 3 day weekend of sunshine! (Hopefully)
It was perfect evening Schmidt family time hosted by Bill and Amanda!
With sparkles after sunset
And to celebrate Gemma's sweet 16th B-day!

REFLECTIONS
My feet had been on the ground since late October. I feel like a boomerang that needs to bounce back to the skies every few months! I wasn't sure this trip to San Diego would happen with all the weather and health and cost and schedule uncertainties these days. But, it did! It was a short burst of refreshing and bonding with family.
This has been a good 4 GeoGram weeks in the life of Gram G.
