The Tides of March

I took a hiatus from the blog. March 2019 was not a good month for the Garcia/Coy family. The Garcia side (my side) lost a brother and my mother – within a week of each other. The Coy side (wife’s side) lost her mother – within a few days of me losing mine. Rough month – March 2019. My family needed some time and closure, so we decided to take three weeks and drive across the U.S. and visit family and friends. We went to our favorite place first – Walt Disney World – and spent a few days there resting at the Shades of Green Hotel. We then headed to Mobile, Alabama for a one-night visit with one of the wife’s brothers. Good time with him, his family and some of their friends. We then drove to Texas and spent one evening visiting one of my sisters and her family in Houston. Very good visit, but I do have to say that Houston traffic is a little scary! We then ventured to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area to do a little sight- seeing. We also stopped and visited a first cousin and his family in Mt Pleasant, Texas. I had never met this cousin in person before - online chats when I was doing some family searching. It was a great thing. I have read about people meeting relatives online and then they finally get to meet them in person. My turn and it was awesome.

The family and I are back home – so we will get back on track blogging soonest!
