Had the nicest day yesterday! A Dear old (ole) friend came to visit! We were college roommates in 1980-81, living together at the old Faculty House at Foothill College. Lip lived on the main floor and I lived up stairs. It was the coolest 100+ year old house where the faculty would gather in the mornings to eat donuts, drink coffee and brain storm their teaching duties! Lip and I got to live there for free, all we had to do was have the donuts and coffee ready to go! It was a dream for starving students.
Well, it didn't take long for Lip and I to forge a life-long friendship.
Lip-ti was traveling this week to attend a teaching conference in Arizona. He has been home schooling his two beautiful daughter, Mina and Talise their whole lives and is extremely devoted to his professorship duties...his Girls are proof of his amazingness!
So Lip took time out of his schedule and went out of his way to come spend the day with Joe and I! It was truly the best!
We had a really nice lunch, thanks to Patti, who brought us a delicious lasagna (Thank You Patti so much). Lots of great conversation as always with Lip. He and Joe talked of geology, desert, rocks and treasures. I loved listening to them ramble on.
Lip-ti spent a lot of time working on my photos in my computer, putting them finally in a order that I can work with. I took naps inbetween. Lip didn't even mind! Anna and the Girls texted us with photos during the day, so it was kind of like having them here too. It was just a very special day for me and Joe and Shelby too as she loves Lip-ti too. I just want to Thank You Lip for being such a wonderful, caring friend. You gave me a great gift yesterday just being here! I love you and Anna and Mina and Talise!! Now here are some photos to enjoy!
