Was so excited for you today when I read the note about your trip in our St. Luke Snapshot. We were visiting our daughter and her family in Michigan over the Memorial Holiday weekend and didn’t get to hear you last week. We will keep you in our prayers, and I will enjoy reading your updates! Have a wonderful experience! Alice Beishline
