Well, I wish. Of the few plans we have made for our epic journy the one that seemed most likely and necessary, was the day we would hit the road. That is/ was/ could still be the 14th of May. God give me patience! I want to begin now but there is still business to attend to here at home. The sale on our house was to close on the 10th. That is looking not likely since the buyer has had loan problems. So we are pursuing our backup buyer. It's always something!
Daughter number one threw us a curve a couple of weeks ago that affected our plans as well. She announced that she was going to get married. How wonderful we thought, but when? "Oh, next wednesday at 10:30, can you make it?" well yeah but Wednesday? "We thought it best so that the baby can be covered under his insurance". Oh well of course... what a baby? Oh geeze (or something like that was said). The baby is due first week of November so we will have to cut our time in Florida and Texas short I think.
Just point me to the highway, pull out the wheel blocks and let me loose!!!

Hey Teddy - Here today and still here tomorrow. We were wondering if you were going to post your blog soon. Nice to hear from you. Sounds like the great escape ran into some "speed bumps" on the way. Keep us posted!
:) i'll bet you're excited about your upcoming mini-trip this thursday! :) ... are you going to blog about that too? i look forward to reading more blogs about your great adventure :) ...
Hey Ted... it's "journey" not "journy." You'd think me incompetent if I didn't point this out to you:-)
It looks like you are about ready to go all the way. Keep us informed and don't lose that great sense of humor!!
