We woke up early today and I got started re-potting Mom's violets. I don't think they had been potted since I did it about one year ago- so we fixed all the goose necks and in a couple of months they should be happily blooming once again :) I also took home some great little suckers- more plants, hmmmmm where to put them.

After the plants were ready for another year, I got to perm Mom's hair. Now I think that I have done this before, but Mom had to lead me through the pattern again. I was setting the curlers so tight that Dad had to go get more curlers so I could finish one side. I am happy to say that the perm turned out wonderfully!

After a busy morning we all enjoyed a delicious lunch of shrimp scampi with rice, some guacamole and chips, with the finishing touch- rhubarb pie. After relaxing a bit we got all of our stuff together (traveling with our trusty backpacks) and headed for the airport. On the way back to Madison I got some wonderful pictures of a large thunderhead and some beautiful column cumulus. Enjoy!
