While in Colorado, I visited with Beth several assisted living facilities. My favorite was Solstice at Mesa View in Grand Junction. I could be very happy there. The next day we went touring along the Colorado River and on to Canyonlands and Arches National Park. Very impressive. So different and beautiful. This picture shows me standing on Beth's new home patio

Colarodo
Thurday was an interesting day. Bryce drove us to the airport in Portand to catch our flight to Denver. Beth, Charlie and myself boarded the plane and 4 hours later we were in Denver. We had a short wait for our flight to Grand Junction and soon we were in the air again. Just before we got to Grand Junction, the pilot announced that two big storms were in the area with 50 MPR winds and he was returning to Denver to wait for better weather. To make a very long story short and after many promises for a new flight crew to arrive, we were told that the best they could do was reschedule the flight for 6:30 on Friday. We found available seats as It was now too late to go to a hotel. We lay on the seats for a 3 hour nap and a United Employee brought blankets for our comfort and we slept a little.
Friday, as promised, the flight happened and we were in Grand Junction in an hour. Charlie got the rental and we drove to Fruita, a few minutes away. Beth and Charlie went to close on their house and I stayed in the AIRBAB and slept. They bought the house and furniture. Later, Beth took me over to see the house and it is so very nice. I love the layout. Now on to the next adventure. an assisted living home, but I"m worried about the elevation as I am some short of breath and I know Tom will be, so we will have to see.

Moving sale
We are trying to get rid of lots of unneeded junk in preparation to move to Colorado in two years. That is the plan at the moment. Beth wants to move there when she retires in two years. We will follow. So another move is in the making. Lots of stuff to get rid of in the meantime. We do have two years.

new churches
We visited Hebron Baptist last Sunday and plan to go to West Sumner Baptist this Sunday. Hebron was very nice and friendly but still a distance away. Sumner is very close for winter driving.Will update as we visit.

Black Day at Church
Our new pastor of 3 moths was fired by the deacons and today was his last day. It will be known how this will affect the church. Tom and I will look elsewhere for sure. Brother Ken was an excellent preacher and it was totally unfair for him to be dismissed. I wish he and Jen the best wherever they go. I am very upset over this. WPBC has been our church for 25 years and we are so sorry to leave, but we can't stay while Gary and Edie are in charge. The devil has finally gotten a stronghold in the church, Maybe it was us and things will get better without us.
