Well Done.....you should have added, drove through a blizzard in the Sierras. It definitely was worth it.

That is so cool. I want to know how it came about that Marin got to be so lucky. That sure beats my meeting Pres. and Sis. Hinckley.

That's so neat - I bet she will always remember! You should print out that picture and frame it for her. That's gotta make the whole trip worth it!
