We began our day's journey on the plains of western Nebraska, where the fields were flat and mostly brown.
By the time we entered the state of Colorado, the fields were dusted with snow! We have traveled from winter into spring and back into winter again!
We found a rest area with a picnic table in the sunshine.
Thank you, Sara, for the water bottle! With yours, we have three of them with us on our trip. So necessary!
We had bagel sandwiches with cheese and lettuce, and hard boiled eggs from last night's motel. It was an excellent lunch. But our fingers were cold!
The volunteers at the rest areas are super friendly. We have enjoyed many conversations with these senior citizens!
Now we are in Denver, one mile high! (1,609.344 mètres)
We found a flowering tree outside our hotel! We are in spring again! But last night they had snow here!
In the evening, we were invited to a Passover Seder at the home of my friend, Patricia Gaffney Kindig. Here are some of the traditional dishes on the table.
Note the name tag! Marie Therese and Anne Marie also had name tags at their places! |
There were nine people at the table, including Patricia's brother from Madison, Wisconsin, and her daughter from New York City.
It was a privilege to share this meaningful feast with this family and their friends. Thank you!
