We went on a vacation to Idaho for a week to visit Jason's maternal grandma, Juanita O'Reilly (for whom Violet got her middle name). Jerry and Judy Chruma came up from Phoenix, so we had all the generations present! Grandma O'Reilly and Sam (Judy's brother) live at and run the Idaho farm, so we had a wonderful time in the rolling hills and pine tree-covered land. The weather was great and the air fresh! While there, we took a day trip to Coeur'd Alene, a lakefront town where we spent part of our honeymoon. Also, Jason was able to visit Washington State University in Pullman, WA (about 45 minutes from the farm) to network with one of the new chemistry professors there. One of the other highlights was the Moscow, ID farmers market on Saturday with vendors selling organicly-grown produce and other items. What a great time!
