A Family Lunch Date in Woodland
Several family members live in Northern California and it seemed like a good time to get some of us older ones, mostly retired, together. I dreamed up a coach trip to Woodland where it would be convenient to meet. Gale and John live only 50 miles north of Woodland, Harris and Barbara live in Sacramento. Murle Jean lives near us, so she joined us at our place for the 80 mile drive to Woodland aboard the coach. Everyone agreed to meet at In-N-Out Burgers just off I-5 in Woodland. And we did!
The purpose of the coach was that we could eat aboard and wouldn’t have to put up with the noise of a public eatery. And we would all be seated close together. Everyone agreed. We enjoyed peace and quiet, no loud music and no squalling kids. What a grand idea to eat in the coach!
We agreed to meet at 1300 hours so as to be a bit behind the lunch rush. Three of us walked over and ordered all our meals. When we got back to the coach we all dug into our delicious hamburgers and fries. Except me; I had forgotten to get Lavonne’s cheeseburger. Back I went to get it! We had a grand time visiting as it had been years since we’d all been together.
Our visit was an eye-opener of sorts; if we all choose to make the effort to get together, we can make it happen. And we agreed that we should do so more often. Perhaps again in the springtime – I hope so!
