We had a nice stay with Kathy's sisters and with Nicole and the grandkids. Time went by so fast and being sick for part of it really shortened the fun. But we did join the hustle and bustle of the season, made cookies, shopped, had a few meals out and drove the crazy roads of Pittsburgh. Most of all it was family time that was the best.
Maria and Cliff waved and sent out kisses as we left.
Kathy had made a wreath from Christmas Trees left behind by the scouts and Will brought it up
and placed it on his parents grave. The tradition started 18 years ago when Kathy made the wreath for the front door, now the Bradley's still get a wreath at the holidays.
Next stop was to see Clyde and Arlene, Will's cousin. They live just up the road from where the house on Beech Road. It was a nice visit.
They had their kids for Christmas and now the house was quiet. We shared our year's travels with them and ate some of Cyde's homemade cookies. He was a baker back in the day and has lots of tips for baking great cookies. We caught up on the family tree with the new baby announcement.
Then we stopped at storage and dropped off a few things and made our way to Oakmont to visit with Jessica and Travis. They have a nice home. The tree was filled with sports characters and a few of Jessie's ornament too. There was the one with her baby picture.
Downstairs is the studio where Travis has his drums set up; a good place for making music!
Ater we sat for some pizza and conversation in their dining room we departed and hit the road. We made it as far as the West Virginia border where we spent the night at the Welcome Center.
