After the famous skydive my sister Gail drove back to Capitan with us to spend a week of her vacation. We were excited to have her this year since we really didn't get to do too much when she was here last year because she was so sick. Unfortunately, she hurt her foot again in the skydive so couldn't do quite as much as we had planned. On the way back to Capitan, we spent one night in Midland with Ed's mom Vi so we didn't have to drive all the way from Dallas in one loooong day. On the way to Midland as we were passing by Big Spring on the interstate, Gail wondered if Aunt Nonie (our mother's youngest sister) was at home since she divides her time among there, NC, and CA. We called and dropped by for about an hour's visit. It was really good to see her.
Even with Gail's bum foot we did enjoy happy hour on the deck in the late afternoons,
several games of Scrabble (she won 2/I won 2),
and a day trip to Albuquerque. She wanted to see some of the "touristy" things, so we went to Old Town. We decided that next year when she comes we will spend the day in Santa Fe.
She was able to stay through the weekend and enjoy the community events during Capitan Coming Together, so it was a very good week.
