 It went as well as it could under the circumstances. My BIL Andrew said it really hadn't sunk in yet and remarked several time how quiet the house was without her. Her presence is everywhere. We took the dog  up to the park several times and I met some of his neighbors. That was nice. Mostly we didn't go out. But we did visit the University of Arizona bookstore. I got a nice book about cactus blooms. He got something for his car and we walked around the campus a little. It had the most amazing sundial I've ever seen. I managed not to cry in Andrew's presence but nearly lost it when he brought home her ashes. My youngest sister managed to join us for the last two days on her way home from a business trip. That was good.
 
Once back I quarantined myself for a week, just to be sure I wasn't spreading anything. I've put together a bunch of photos with her and I'll send them off to him soon.

Those sorts of family meet-ups are always so hard. Hugs if you want them.

I’m glad the trip went well and that you didn’t pick up anything unpleasant. *hugs*
