The car rental agent was at the marina at 8:30 am to pick up Gale so we could rent one of their vehicles. We were expecting a new grandchild any day and Maureen was going back to help Jess, Joe and JT out and wait for the new baby to arrive. We arrived in Clear Lake at 5 pm and our first stop was to see Gale’s parents. Gale and Mary looked great and were very surprised to see us. After some time with the folks, we drove out to the condo. It felt very nice to walk into our place after nearly three months on the water. We enjoyed some Chinese take-out food and then spent time visiting with our neighbors, Nick and Jane Ong, who brought us up to date on what was happening around the Sandpiper Condominiums. We were both exhausted after the long drive and, as was our usual routine, went to bed about sunset!
