Wyoming

 While we were at Bill and Marge’s, they told us about the huge hailstorm they’d had a couple weeks earlier.  They have a metal roof on their house, which is now dented.  Between them and their son Don, they had seven windshields destroyed.  Bill showed me craters in the lawn where hailstones the size of softballs had hit. After the storm passed, they collected and saved a few hailstones in the freezer.  That was a hailstorm to remember. 

Our daughter and her family

 From Amsterdam to Munich on a train.  Eight hours at about 100 miles per hour, and Becky did it facing backwards.  (She’s a little woozy.)  They’ve settled in an apartment for a week. Becky and family’s 2017 trip Becky observes that “Driving with no stop signs is confusing.  You apparently "know" who has the right of way.  Unfortunately, not all of us got the memo on who that is, and have to master the apologetic wave.”  

The morning view

  And looking the other way. An interesting little trailer. It’s called an Element. Brother Tom has a Honda Element he calls Elmo.  We found an Elmo for Tom’s Elmo! Inside the park, the tower.  And of course, there are climbers on it.

 They’re off on a summer trip to Europe for a few weeks.  Becky reports in each day on Facebook.  They flew from Denver to Dallas to Amsterdam, rented a car and drove to Delft, where they’re staying on a farm. I made a trip map of their travels. Becky and family’s 2017 summer trip  Becky and family’s 2017 trip a little closer up With an eight hour time difference, every morning while we’re having coffee in the windshield, they’re getting ready to get to dinner that day.
