Cold & bright—took a short horseback ride. Late afternoon Doria & Ron arrived for a family pow wow. He’d been rude to Nancy on a phone call and when I phoned him about it he said he thought we needed to clear the air. It wasn’t the greatest meeting but still I think it opened the door to a closer relationship. He seemed to be carrying water for Patti who has a kind of yoyo family relationship. She’s either warmly attentive or very distant & Nancy seems to bear the brunt of it.
