“Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.” -

The blur of life...

Hey, everyone. We are still here, just very busy. We have been on the go so much lately and my lap top still won't let me post to my own blog. With darkness falling an hour earlier, nighttime finds us both falling asleep while watching television. But do you realize the winter solstice is December 22nd? Barely a month away. I like to think of that day as the start of the rapid march to spring!

Chucky is doing well. He likes to sleep in the evenings, too. He can sure snore when is is sleeping. He also likes to watch TV and gets very excited when he sees dogs on the screen. He seems to have calmed down a bit and I am not as tired from spending all my time with him as I was a couple of months ago.

Tramp 1 has just about finished his travel for the year. I, on the other hand, have been on the road more. The first week of November found me traveling to visit my mother and a dear cousin in Washington state. Just five days and 1000 miles - no wonder I am tired. And right now I am back in Washington state again visiting my Mom. Tramp 1 is home dealing with some landscaping that we are having done. I am really glad to be away while the work is going on. This morning he had work done on the septic tank - that is one thing I am especially glad to have missed! But I will be headed back to all of the fun very soon as weather is coming in and I would like to beat the snow as I head back home again.

Here in the UK it is very difficult to be able to drive 1000 miles! Take care on the roads, especially if the snow starts xxx

I don't think we will ever see Winter this year!

I know that at 11:15 in the morning and the temp is right about 78!

You be careful on your trip! Lots of crazies out there!
