Travels - Mar in Utah

March 24 - 28, 2009

Margaret continued being a wanderer after our return home. She went to Utah for the purpose of getting her mother and bringing her back for a visit. It really wasn't as easy a trip as one might believe.

First of all, she drove the whole way over - by herself. It is a long and boorriinngg trip.

But more importantly there was the weather. On Monday the 23rd, there was a blizzard raging in southern Wyoming. We kept a watch on that and it looked like there was a possible window of opportunity. She left at 9:00 in the morning on Tuesday which allowed her to make the drive in the daylight. Some of the roads were a little icy, but she didn't see any precipitation snow until she got to Cache Valley. Not a bad plan. She stayed there until Saturday because another blizzard moved in and Saturday was her next clear opportunity to come home.

Mar's time in Utah was spent serving and helping her family. Her mom needed to go shopping so Mar took her. Her sister needed to look for a new car so Mar went with her. She did spend the evenings with her family talking and enjoying.

All the same, I'm glad she came home. Yes we were both home at last again on Saturday night - and I don't have to leave again until - Monday.
