July 26th was the day it was time to hit the road and travel to upstate New York to celebrate Rich’s and my 55th wedding anniversary at the same church we were married in on July 29, 1967.

This is actually a post that Lia should write since it’s about Lia’s salmon dinner she made but me being a proud great grandmother had to share it. This is the first time she prepared salmon all by herself! This is Alaskan wild caught sockeye, my favorite! Lia is very careful when using knives and scissors.
