Day 1: The first leg of our trip took us to Flushing, New York. Willie's mission! Through facebook I spoke with Candy and we set up a gathering of those who Willie taught. I knew that Willie was extremely excited to visit his old stomping grounds. He was ecstatic about seeing old friends again. We had a great Chinese dinner. I even tried jellyfish. Chewy. Thank you for dinner our friends. 


Day 2: The second part of our journey took us to Washington D. C. We had hoped to stop in Philadelphia to visit a friend of mine but the circumstances did not allow such a visit. Bummer. We did get to drive through a big rain storm in D.C. where it took us an additional hour or two to get to our destination. We just happened to drive by the Temple so we pulled off the freeway to avoid some traffic and see a beautiful site.
We stayed with some of our old friends from Utah State/Boise. We had some fun with them. Thanks for hosting us.
Piper was a treat. She and the boys stayed in one room together. We found out that Piper stayed up extra late working on a project. She found some baby powder and started distributing it to Parker and Lincoln, but first was her baby. Parker had a line of baby powder on his head. Lincoln was lucky, the powder was nearly gone when Piper got to him.
Her poor baby was received the first blow.
We made it to Atlanta after another two days of travel. We stayed with the Merkley family. Thank you so much for letting us stay with you. We all got together, the Merkley's, the Salmon's and us. We let the kids go to bed and we stayed up enjoying each others company. After being friends for two years we finally have a group shot. I think it turned out rather nicely. Thanks for being our great friends. 
p.s. this post is incomplete. I have forgotten a few things but one day I will hopefully write them down. :)

Smokes what a trip! I can't believe you guys hit all those places! Boston is great...so glad you could experience it!
hey guys! So do you know where you will be living at in Atlanta? I didn't even know you guys moved. Welcome back! We got a house in the Suwanee ward. Hope to hear back from you soon!
What a terrific family! It was great getting to know you all too briefly in Boston. Sure that our paths will cross again someday.--timo
