Family Travel (and another visit to Israel) - June-July 2023

Spring 2023 was a season of loss (a coworker of Mark's died suddenly, while Ellie and Molly, beloved family pets, reached the end of their lives).

By June, it was time again to find something to celebrate - and with the entire Wiles clan descending on Williamsburg to honor the 65th wedding anniversary of my grandparents, we had a lot of people to celebrate with. I just had to fit in a little trip to visit my new (to me) team in Israel in the days beforehand.

July was Wisconsin, for the 90th birthday of my Oma, and a similar situation on the Walters side. We bounced from cousin's to cousin's, including an evening at Summerfest watching a band I love (Walk the Moon). With my immediate family in both sides of a duplex, we spent time playing games and playing with the niece and nephews.
