Bringing Europe home

Alison arrived back home from her European trip last night—safe and sound and very tired. She brought Europe home with her, as she packed in many, memorable experiences into those 3 weeks! They are a part of her now.

It’s good to have her back home, and to hear about her great adventures! She brought each of us in our family a little gift, which was very thoughtful. Mine was a Euro and a small rock that she picked up on a mountain peak above Salzburg, Austria. (A piece of the Alps for me!) I lived in Austria for 6 months, and climbed many times in those beautiful mountains, so it really is a meaningful item!
