Group hugs from your mutant family to your grandson and to you and Nola. I know when your grand babies hurt, you hurt with them no matter how old they are.
Ditto X 2.

Sue, Annie, Martin and I looked high and low for a goose on Goose Island. Not a goose around and we think we know why... We did see the big tree - and Annie and Sue found a smaller one to stand next too.

Dave, words cannot describe the heartfelt sorrow that is felt for such a tragedy. Our condolences to all affected.

Add a pound or two of bacon in the stuffing and that thing will taste as good as goose doesn't anyway.

Evening one and all Mutants.

Dave, please know that Marcia and I will keep your grandson and the girls family in our thoughts.
Dwayne , happy belated birthday to you, and healing oooohhhmmmssss to Share.

We left Indiana Saturday morning only to discover a frozen water pump in the coach, we stopped at a CW in Indianapolis and they didn't have parts and suggested Ace Hardware. We stopped at CW in Bowling Green, KY and got everything we needed, plus they let us spend the night hooked up to a 50 amp plug, I switched out the pump this morning, and we got to have nice hot showers to start out the day , and guess where we landed for the night , why none other than Little Rock, AR , how's that for Deja Vu .... lol .....
We are headed for sunny AZ and tomorrow skirting the likes of DFW and lands southwest of there.

Wishing y'all safe journeys ...

Cheers !!!
