Remainder of Leave

The last week of leave before flying over the great blue

At dinner with Cody's grandma Barb and her husband Darrell

Uncle Todd and cousin Dani

'See you next year'

at handoff  #2 in Sioux City

Just one of many games

Why not conquer a puzzle at the coffeeshop

And teach Dad how to play bocce ball whilst sampling more Broken Bow brews

It wasn't in the cards that day for Dad or I

the angelic griller

I declined to publish the remainder of the photos in this array 

Discussing the proper way to create the perfect smore

One of my favorites

Reunited and it ...stinks

It runs in the family...

A quick drive up cabbage hill

Wilson and Cody in our tiny, tiny little car

This picture makes me smile

The usual picture lineup before departing

Parting words from the street

Snoqualmie Falls, WA

Wilson was quite the hit here

These guys woke up at 2am to tote us and all our luggage and pets to the airport- can't thank them enough!

Saying goodbye to his parents- it's what finally produced the tears for this guy

The boarding passes on our 767, 2-3-2 seater, two in flight meals transport

Thanks so much for all those helping us during this move, and especially to family for driving us around and making sacrifices to see us before we departed. More to come on our arrival in Japan...
