Woe is we!  All good things have to come to an end, and at 10:21 PM we arrive back in Memphis to be collected by Janis and Ron, and no doubt Cheryl.  Of course they will be wondering what we brought them; maybe nothing if, as we expect before departure, the price there will curl your hair!  However, long experience will dictate that we will be tired, but happy to be home again!  Family is always calling us back!
