Outa Town

Three of the last four weekends of April I was out of town.

April 7th my niece got married down in New Mexico, so I drove down to attend the wedding.  In true Martin style, it was a court house affair followed by a picnic a couple hours away in the mountains.  I had fun.  Juanita and our youngest daughter and her kids stayed and worked taking care of a group that had rented the whole lodge.



































In March I had gotten a call that one of my closest friends had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and was not going to be able to take his guests on a tour of the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park.  He had 2 different 6 day tours scheduled and needed me to fill in for him, so from April 19th to May 5th I was in Arizona/Utah working with the local Navajo guides taking about a dozen people through some of the most striking real estate in North America.  I had fun.  Juanita and our youngest daughter and her kids stayed and worked taking care of several more groups that had rented the whole lodge.


















I'm pretty sure I should be feeling really guilty about now.

  1. You shouldn't feel guilty, Bill. You are a good man, Charlie Brown. Going to a family wedding and helping a friend in need are things that will hold you up. I'm sure Juanita was stressed, but was steadfast in what had to be done along with you. And I know you two...you supported each other no matter what and where. Lots of hugs to you guys!

I had to turn verification back on. Ten "spams" an hour is making me crazy...
