Kansas




Our fun and good fortune continue on and on with this trip.  We arrived in Lawrence, KS on Tuesday, July 7 to see my old friend Susan, her husband, Jeff, and their two girls, Hannah and Becca.  Susan and I practiced law together in Boston a "few" years ago.  They moved to Kansas when Jeff became a professor at the U of Kansas more than ten years ago.  We received another warm welcome and had a blast with all of them.  I don't want to put much personal information here, but Jeff was seriously ill and we prayed for him while he underwent multiple surgeries and treatments.  It was great to see him thriving and still have his great sense of humor.  Susan's as dynamic and fun as ever and the girls could not have been nicer to my kids.  They are two beautiful and kind young ladies.  We had a chance to catch up with life - theirs and mine - there have been a lot of changes over the years and it's nice to see everyone doing so well.  Lawrence is a great little town.  

We took our time leaving on Wed. morning.  Hannah and Becca took the kids to a playground so I could go for a run.  We then made our way to Boulder, but stopped in Limon, CO for the night.  We arrived in Boulder on Thursday.  Tidewater friends, look out for the next post - we saw Erin, Nyita, Josie, Simon and Akasha!!
