You can stop reading if I've told you all this before. It's sounding very familiar as I write, but I see no evidence of it on your wall. Either I've told someone else or ..... it's heck getting old!

I think I'm going to need a vacation from all my vacations this summer. LOL! I'm heading to AZ on Saturday (instant summer!), hanging with my sister and her boyfriend in the Phoenix area for a few days and then driving to Las Vegas to meet our sister-in-law (brother's wife) who will be driving from LA with her nephew who's visiting from Ecuador. We'll take Santiago and head back to NW AZ. My sister  Julie's planned 2 or 3 or 6 excursions for that area, including Antelope Canyon and the Grand Canyon. It's going to be hotter than a pistol but I'm going to try not to whine. She tends to be overly optimistic as to how much can be done in the allotted time. She wants to pack as much fun in as possible! Julie and Santi will be doing a strenuous 10-hour one-way overnight hike so they can play in the waterfalls at Havasupai during the day Saturday the 17th. She's a hiking animal; I'm not! I'll be hanging around Flagstaff that day. Then we head south to the Tucson area to meet up with my brother, sister-in-law, their niece and her family. My sister-in-law, Santi, and I then drive to LA on Monday to see my brother & sis-in-law's son and his family. Santi has to catch a plane back to Ecuador on Tuesday. I'm staying until Saturday to visit with my nephew and his family. Their new baby scheduled by c-section today. I haven't even met their almost 4-year-old yet! My brother & sis-in-law just bought a condo near LA for when they retire so I'll be hanging there with sis-in-law. My plane gets into Denver at 12:30 AM Sunday.

I leave the following Friday for a week in the mountains with my hubster. Two days later I fly to North Dakota, pack up everything Mom needs for a weekend family reunion, pick up Julie & her boyfriend at the airport, and then we drive to Michigan for a long weekend. Back to ND to celebrate Dad & Mom's birthdays which are 5 days apart. I'm staying another week to sort out financial stuff and see if I can winnow out the storage unit we rented when they moved into assisted living and sold their condo. It takes a while to sort through 60 years of stuff!

I hope your summer vacation(s) are much more relaxing than mine!

Thanks in advance for the teapot. I'll see if I can jettison any more friends so I have room for Ef. Friends that have been inactive are playing again, so I'm not sure who can be cut loose right now.
