Day 82 - Grandma & Flooding
Monday, March 24, 2008
Jeff and I left Rachael at his parents' house to color Easter eggs, and left Nick at my mom's house while we drove to St. Louis to pick up my grandma. Wow, I couldn't believe how high the water was! It looked like we were driving through a lake, and we were on the Interstate! We had a nice drive, though. I LOVED having 3 hours alone with Jeff. We were able to drive and talk with no interruptions. It was great! When we got to my grandma's house, she took us to the fire station where we picked up some sandwiches to eat for supper. My grandma never ceases to amaze me ... she'll be 84 this year and is in better physical shape than I am! She just finished a two mile walk yesterday for her church, and still has a spring in her step! She didn't get her driver's license until she was 70 years old, and she still walks nearly everywhere. She also cleans & decorates the church, keeps up her garden & her jungle of houseplants, and hand sews several quilts per year. I hope I'm able to be that active when I'm that age ... heck, I just hope I'm still ALIVE At that age! ;-D
