That's it for the Fracless traveling adventure. Tale of the tape; 3260 miles in thirteen days. I flew to Phoenix on Tuesday, arriving at 1:50 P.M. We immediately set out North and ended up in Las Vegas by 7:30 P.M. The next day we drove from Las Vegas to Ontario, Oregon, a total of 695 miles. We drove from just before dawn to just after sunset. Today, we hit the road at 6:30 A.M. Mountain time. Almost immediately, we gained an hour as we passed into the Pacific time zone. We made it to Spokane just before noon. We were blessed with more than our usual traveling mercies on the way back. We had no weather challenges at all, the traffic was manageable all the way, the truck performed reliably, and we are at peace with our decision to come home. While away, our daughter Leticia, who is a gifted, compassionate care giver, took care of Dad. We're with him tonight. He's a bit more lively, having been out in the general population for both lunch and dinner. I'm hopeful he's on the way to recovering. Besides our hands on ability to care for Dad now, we're also in a position to be with Dave and Liz Ulmen as they battle Dave's cancer treatment. We're helping with the mission of fattening up Dave. Tonight, we brought them a pan full of baked pasta, which should be easy for Dave to slurp down despite his sore throat. They say things happen for a reason. I hope that reason is the full recovery of those we care about. That's the thing about hope: it gives a person a whole tingly feeling, and that makes life good, especially today.
Note: This is officially the end of Fric and Frac's Fracless Adventure.
