Becky visits Toni; New Car; Sleeping on our new bed tonight; Only 4 more Chemo weeks to go.

One of Toni's best friends, Becky Trujillo, came to visit with us for a few days this weekend.   We were so very glad to have her here.   She really energized Toni.   It is probably the best I have seen Toni in weeks.  We have a bunch of pictures to upload (coming soon).  So here is the short summary:
  • Thursday - Becky flew in to Seattle; Toni and Becky ran around downtown Kirkland.
  • Friday - Becky went with Toni to Chemo. (I was looking for a car). She met Vicki, Toni's favorite chemo nurse.  Tears all around.  Becky joined Toni and me on a quest to replace the BMW.   We chose a 2010 Subaru Outback.   A very good replacement car.  Lots of room, and all wheel drive.   Awesome.
  • Saturday - Roadtrip to Port Townsend.   It was a bit blustery and cold, but we had a blast. Took the Edmonds ferry to Kingston and then drove up to Port Townsend.  We snapped a bunch of pictures of the wonderful old homes there, strolled the beaches, viewed lighthouses, ate a wonderful lunch at Sweet Lorette's, cruised around at the town's Farmer's Market, and visited Fort Worden (where the movie Officer and a Gentleman was filmed). 
  • Sunday - Had to say goodbye.   Tears all around.  Toni and I set up our new bed. Toni and  I will be sleeping on our new Savvy Rest bed tonight.   We'll let everyone know how it goes.
Toni has 4 weeks of chemo to go!!!
