Today was the day...

Mary checks out her weight - not to see how much she gained from eating that "Sticky Mama" yesterday, but to see how much her luggage weighed. 62 pounds - not bad considering she came over with only the black bag on the right and somehow managed over the last two months to fill up the blue bag on the left. Personally, I couldn't lift either one.










One last lunch near the old mill in Clinton. Can you believe Mary opted to skip dessert? Of course the portions were extra large - even the two John's weren't able to clean their plates.


Then it was on to the airport. We were lucky to find a wheel chair just sitting in the parking lot so grabbed it to use as a luggage carrier. Security didn't ask what she'd done with the person in it... just so long as she wasn't trying to sneak in any shampoo and toothpaste in her carry-on. Hugs & goodbyes and Mary was on way to the boarding gate and we were on our way to NYC rush hour traffic.
It was a great treat for those of us on this side of the Atlantic to have Mary here for the summer!!!! We hope you have enjoyed following our trip and, like us, are looking forward to future adventures!
