a lovely drive...
on monday, i took the day off to spend it with conrad's family, since it was ranae and josh's last day in AF. one of their family traditions on the 4th is to go on a drive. last year, we went on the back roads to where conrad's grandma's parents settled and where she grew up. it was very interesting. ranae missed it last year, so that was the one thing she wanted to do for sure during their short visit. we took the back roads to malta and then decided to head up the pomerelle mountain. i've never seen it without snow! it was absolutely beautiful. i was glad i'd thrown my camera in my purse before we left. there's a few lakes up there and there's still some snow!! i can't wait to go up there again.
