I had the opposite experience this week, my in laws* came from VT to spend Thanksgiving with us and I took a few vacation days...it's been fantastic , as they are totally cool and I enjoy their company.
(The asterisk is that my wife's Dad is here with his girlfriend despite them being in their mid-seventies
)
They do go to bed rather early, especially since they are accustomed to east coast time so I have also had time to reorganize a few card boxes and scan some recent pickups...it's all real good here!
Although he won't see this...Thanks for coming Pa!
