We stayed in Modesto in front of Scott Castle's (Mark's brother's) old house; he and his family had moved that day into a gorgeous home with a great pool in the backyard and even a secret cubby under the stairs for their two little girls (Ceara and Sydney). Katie got a sugar rush eating their Halloween candy and we cracked up watching old game show bloopers (they were funnier than you might think) and admiring their new digs. I'm glad we got to see the place (and Scott's family and also Leigh Ann's) before we started our big trip.
