Days 48, 49, 50 & 51-July 16-19

Saturday was spent visiting with Judy's family that live in Riddle.  We did all those things that families do when they get together after an absence of several years.  Looking at pictures, eating good food, playing games and just trying to make up for lost time.  On Sunday, Jess and I and George and Michelle met with her family from California and Nevada in Grants Pass.  After stocking up on groceries at Walmart we traveled to Whispering Creek Ranch where everyone shared a cabin by Lake Selmac.  Judy and Andy and some of their family joined us on Monday afternoon.  We had a great time fishing in the lake, playing bocci ball, horseshoes, several games of cards and one hilarious game of Mad Gab.  In between all of the fun activities we ate and ate and ate.  Jess and I have decided that we need to stick with salads for the rest of our trip.  Time is starting to press us, so on Wednesday morning after another round of pictures and hugs we said our goodbyes and continued our journey.
