Apr 14 – 18 ... Las Vegas & Houston. We arrived in Las Vegas around 330p. We overnighted at Boulder Station hotel/casino.
Thursday we left for the airport around 515am for our 7am flight. That flight was full so we headed to the Presidents Club until the 815a flight. We got seats on that one but we sat on the plane for almost 2 hrs due to a maint. problem. We finally arrived in Houston at 3pm, got our rental car at Hertz and drove to see Ruthie at Garden Terrace in the medical center area. We stayed for an hour and had a great visit. Dixie trimmed Ruthie’s hair (her first cut since it grew back after surgery). We ended up staying at Ruthie’s house instead of Roger & Karen’s due to Karen being sick (never did get to see them). We had a wonderful dinner with Jim & Priscilla (neighbors from Atascocita) at Hasta La Pasta. On Friday we headed back to visit Ruthie. We spent 3 hours with her & sat in on her therapy. Her sister Julie and brother Joe arrived before we left. We defiantly saw some improvement in Ruthie since we saw her last month. She is still really struggling with her voice, but has improved in other area. We attended a small gathering for Mike’s reunion that evening and went with some classmates/friends to a late dinner afterward.
Saturday morning we cleaned Ruthie’s house and backyard area. In the afternoon we visited with Mike & Hope. The Saturday evening reunion festivities were at the Post Oak Hilton in the Galleria. We really had a good time visiting, listening to oldies music, and eating/drinking.
Sunday we headed to the airport at 730a and made it on the 930a flight - Mike even got first class. We made it back to the motorhome at St George about 4p.
