    Good Morning,
    Skip, have you ask hospice if they could provide someone a couple days a week to give Carrie a rest? I know it's done from some here.
    I believe a Morgan roadster would be nice, of course then you would have to sew patches on sleeves of jackets and get a cap.
    We had a rainy night in Georgia and looks to be a rainy day, Pablo went out this morning and turned around and came straight back in,

    Good morning.

    ((Carrie))

    Victrola guy finished up yesterday with another full trailer. The bottle shop guy wasn't interested in the scotch, so one bottle came back with me. I'll be driving on the next trip down probably in mid-April.

    It was bittersweet his trip. Next time I'm there, the house won't look like "their house". All the stuff will be ready for sale or have already been sold and all the pictures taken down.

    Sigh.

    The bottle shop.

    Good morning

    Hard times Lou, I'm sure.

    Skip, Hopefully hospice RN gives dmil some sleep aid.
    Poor Carrie and you, this is so hard and exhausting.

    Perrinials are poking up in my gardens. 5 weeks til our glamper comes out of storage and goes back to the lake.

    Hope Steph and Ron are well!

    Have a good day BBB !

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • I know you are glad to have the Mustang gone.
    • Thinking of Carrie and her Mom. I don't think anyone is every ready for that.
    • Lou's task isn't any fun either.
    • I was supposed to be heading to Daytona today. The fact that it is raining lessens the disappointment.
    • Instead, we have a trip to Costco planned, and yes, I am taking my cane.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    We certainly seem to be full of trials, tragedies and disappointments, lately. Home oncoming spring brings an uplift it our spirits.

    I have decided that it would be foolish of me to hit a trail until I have clearance from my doctor, so I will just continue to walk in the lowlands and stay away from the mountains. Lots of fresh snow on those trails, anyway. I have walked 20 miles over the last week, at least.

    Morning BBB

    Our drive across the US in the last few weeks has taken us across 16 states. For late Feb-early March we saw very little snow except on mountain peaks.

    Heading to Mexico this morning. Hopefully no issues.

    Airbnb only refunded $150 of over $4000 of our Canada stay. Disappointing to say the least. Hopefully credit card insurance will give something. I don't blame the host for not giving us all the money but was hoping for some.

    Steph - thats *kitten* - if you've not already, you might gain some leverage by calling your State Representatives office who I'm sure, will help convince AirBnB to process full refund for this exigency at the border!

    Yes, glad the Mustang is in a new stable! DF is happy with the g-notes coming his way!
