After saying goodbye to the Kecskes’s and a quick morning visit with my folks we took off for Los Angeles. We drove 370 miles across the Bay Area and through the center of California on the 5 before getting off the freeway in Hollywood. We arrived at our friend’s, Ze and Peter, house just before 4pm. Ze and I are like sister’s. We picked up right where we left off the last time we saw each other. What a privilege it was to be welcomed into her new home and sit out on her rooftop balcony. At least it was until we realized we had locked ourselves out of the house! Fortunately, Ray had his phone and was able to message Peter to come save us🤪. It was worth a good laugh.

Not long afterwards Cole arrived🥰 This Mama’s heart was full after he had given me one of his all embracing hugs. What a gift it is to be able to see him again. We soon sat down to eat an amazing home cooked dinner. Then, after dessert and enjoying some great conversation, we all turned in. Feeling blessed, loved and filled with joy as I write this ❤️
