Trip to Idaho to see Marissa (add text and photos)

 June 11


I drove up to Rexburg, ID - it was a 4 hour drive - not bad.  I arrived pretty late, but Marissa and Michael were there to greet me.  It was so nice to finally see Marissa again - see her apartment - and meet Michael. She made lots of plans for us while I am in Rexburg.

On Friday - horseback riding

 

 


On Saturday - tour gardens on campus, picnic, river

 

Picnic 

Float Warm Slough

 

 

 


On Sunday

 

Sunday Morning Marissa had a meeting with her Bishop - I stayed at the apartment and waited for her to return.  She was offered a calling as a RS counselor.  We drove out to Michael's in separate cars, so that I can leave straight from there.  We had Church with Michael's family - it was so nice.  I learned some new ways of doing things - she shared how she is planning and organizing their family reunion.  Great Ideas!  Church was wonderful.  I stayed for lunch and then had to head out by 2:00 PM to return the rental car on time.

It's not a bad drive back to Salt Lake City - it's three hours on a mostly non-busy road.  I returned the rental car and took the shuttle over to my hotel.  It was a nice room, but everything was closed.  I was bored so I ordered dinner from Uber Eats and did work on my computer for the rest of the evening.  I also had the chance to talk to Markel - she's going through a hard situation with her dad and step-mom, and I also talked to my sister!  

Monday morning I flew home to Texas!
