It’s Easter and the two day holiday is supposed to be spent with family and relatives.

My wife and I have tried to spend as much time as possible at her parents’. They live in a town near the U.S. border, a place quite different from the city I live in today.

Only the temperature difference is over 5 degrees and humidity varies by 50% between the two places; that makes our visit a little uncomfortable.

Undoubtedly, the two persons make our trip worthy. My father in law is a 77 year old and highly cultural guy who never made it beyond Jr. High. His wife, is a typical country lady, refined and resigned to their quiet life, after having an easy and buoyant life in society. She is now in her 70’s. They both always have a story to tell that makes us laugh or wonder how their lives have been. That is always so enjoyable!

The only big problem I have there is: I never get to speak one word.
