Anyone miss me.......

21 years ago

Hiya all, been a student studying full time at the local college and been really busy with home work etc. Been a long time since Ive been in school, what a shock. I will try to stop in more often, I miss everyone. Jen has been keeping me posted a little now and then. Hope everyone is staying healthy, and out of trouble. Spring is almost here, get those sleeping bags aired out.

Jerry, hubby goes back to the canyon the first week of April, he is so excited. He is going for a week with a buddy of his this time. Have you been camping lately?

Brian, hows the cycle trip going, are you back?

Welcome Back! Just got a bunch of stuff for my birthday,
today. Can't wait to use it all. Folks at work got me a 50 dollar gift cert. to a local outdoor shop. Got a fleece bag that can be used for sleeping bag, blanket, pillow, towel, and any other MacGuyver thing that you can think of. Going camping in Lake Meade area in two weeks.
Supposed to be in the mid seventies....ahhh.... can't wait!
I will post the wildflower pictures here when I get back.
Thanks for asking, cheers! Jerry

Welcome back Lynda!

So far this year I've taken several day trips in Virginia, and gone down to Beaufort, SC and back once, with temperatures mostly in the thirties each way. The Gerbing electric jacket liner is wonderful. I guess I put about 2,000 miles on the bike in January and February.

I'm still gathering stuff for a prospective trip to Alaska. We'll have to really pack carefully to make this a part camping trip, but we think we can do it. I've picked up new, smaller and lighter Thermarest pads and a dual fuel stove to replace the white gas only one....other than that it's picking through what we already have.

I just got the 784 page MILEPOST publication from Amazon.com. It's a very comprehensive guide to North Country travel. I recommend it to anyone thinking about a trip to the Northwest and Alaska.

What courses were you taking?

Good luck with the plants! I did the same thing and ended up bringing 80 plants to my new home. Many of them were in plastic grocery bags and sat in my new garage for a couple of weeks until I could get establish garden boundaries and get them in the ground. I only lost a couple, the rest did fine. In some respects the old house garden looked better after thinning out the plants I wanted. I didn't realize it was so overgrown. LOL

I can feel the warmth and caring from all these messages across the miles and am so fortunate to have all of you as my friends. For the ones who also lost loved ones last year, you have my sincere sympathy. It's hard but we will survive. I'm not set up to do any sewing yet, Flamingo, but it won't be long. I could use some new summer clothes, nothing real dressy just casual things.

In 2005 my son suffered a traumatic brain injury. It did a number on his short-term memory. Once he was healed enough to go out and about on his own, he too was afraid of not being able to find his way home. It was probably 2008 or 2009 when GPS became common purchases. We got one for him and programmed "Home". What a freeing thing that was. He could go to a local store without fearing that he'd get lost. I bring this up only as a suggestion that might work for you, as well. If you know you can get yourself to and from A grocery store or Wal Mart, you'll feel so much better about things. Good luck.

I was thinking the same thing....But I had to go out, so that helped and of course we do have the Pittsburgh Penguins in the play offs and that really, really helped..... I am looking forward to the next season of Survivor...That and Housewives are the only things I watch on TV....

Hi Lynda! Nice to see you here! It is such a beautiful day today! Unfortunately, it's supposed to be very cold this weekend! Even more unfortunate, I will be chaperoning my students on a camping (in lodges) weekend in that cold!

Jerry, happy Birthday!

Jerry, Happy belated birthday!!! Sounds like you have some good trips. Hubby is so anxious to get to the Canyon again, they leave April 30th. They got the plane tickets last wk, got the permits, they have been hiking with backpacks weighted down with 40 lb of birdseed.

Brian, I am going for Medical Office Administration. It is done the last week of April. It has been really intense, but a good course. I passed the state test I took a month ago. I have to take a couple more and if all goes well I'll pass and be on my way. Thanks for asking.
