We just got home from Mishawaka, Indiana where we spent yesterday reconnecting with our friends, Patti and Tom Kovach. We had lost touch with one another when life got in the way over the last twenty years, but when we
gave one another that first hug it was like no time had passed at all. The conversation started and never stopped. That is the way it is with true friendship, time cannot change those feelings.
I was so excited to see Patti again and I was not disappointed.
We did promise to never let that happen to us again. We are staying in touch from now on! 
It was amazing to see Tom and Patti waiting for us when we walked into the motel lobby.
We had gotten off to a rather rocky start when enroute we learned that John's mom had passed away after only 7 hours in hospice care.
We stopped over at his sister's house to chat and touch base.
There was nothing else we could do at that point so we went on to our weekend which turned out to be so theraputic.
After all what could be better than spending time with caring friends willing to accept us no matter where our emotions may have taken us after the news we got.
After a few beers, picture exchanging, and non-stop talking in the lobby, we headed over to a pizza place for dinner.
More conversation, lots of laughs, and yummy food made for a perfect evening. There is no where else we would have wanted to be at that moment.
Our wonderful husbands got us some more beer for the rest of the night.
This was the patio that we had outside our room at the Marriot.
We had breakfast at Bob Evans today and reluctantly said our good-byes, but we know this is just the beginning for us.

How thankful we are, not everyone gets second chances.
Patti and Tom, thank you for a wonderful visit.
We love and appreciate more than you will ever know.
