Annie and I are sending you our love. When I talked to Don yesterday he reminded me that Mike had installed the valve on one of Bonitas air tanks. Such a nice guy.

All I can tell ya is he's in good company, most recently Tom. And of course, my daughter Meredith, who I think of as my personal angel and have dispatched to welcome Mike.

Stay strong muntants.

Hmmm... a new piece of information for ya'll....

Ifn you drop a 4" long phillips head drill bit down into your macerator toilet......
You can tie a strong magnet to a string, and fish it out.... yep it worked...
Think Larry's aka is McGyver....
how did i drop a bit into the CLEAN toilet....
i had just cleaned it...

smile,
well the fan is directly above it, and the knob is broken,
so my DW has a battery drill that he uses to open it
But, guess what the bit dropped out.....
no rather
That bit slid right off...
it is now taped on.
No more sliding fingers on that bit.......

This is what I'll be doing next week, we leave for Colorado at 6:30 Tomorrow AM. Pray for me... it's been over 15 years... and last time, I spent way too long lying there trying to get the energy to get back up.

Hey Di!

You are awfully close to the water there. Not that I had any worries about Larry overshooting the bank, but ask the folks there if they've ever had to call the tow trucks to go fishing for RVs.

It looks like a wonderful place to decompress. Enjoy!

Just don't stay too long. Salt air destroys RVs
