Patt got home today

-

After a short two day trip back to the old north state, Patt is back seeing Raleigh, the City, not the child.  Two days you ask?  thought Panama was relatively close ?  and you would be correct.  However, Houston was bad weathered in, so after a holding pattern that ran low on fuel,  it was off to San Antonio for some gas (to bad the Spurs ran out of gas too)and then it was back to Houston to spend the night - and where better if in the west to spend the night than an airport Best Western.  Patt reports being thrilled.  

getting on the third Houston to Raleigh flight the next day turned out to be the best option as the AM flights were delayed too,  (that Houston and summer weather).  So it was just a bit ago 8 PM I skyped with Patt just arrived back home and already missing young grandson here.  Patt did some serious playing with him.

 and taking care of him - including the ole diaper routine too

 but if you think it was all diapers and baby you missed part of the show.  In addition to Spanish lessons in Casco (they do not photograph well and as such are not documented) Patt did a little boxing at the Top Level Gym also in Casco.

 Patt seen here with coach / trainer Edwin with hands in protective position and fierce boxer like scowl-  actually I think she needs to work on that.

 and seen here delivering that famed left cross that known so well.
