Its been a while....Two plus months....not much in the way of trips.....The Headline for "since forever" months has been the weather....RAIN, hail.... with flooding, and tornadoes thrown into the mix....we where lucky concerning the latter two, though we had 3 tornadoes touch down one evening within 5/10 miles from us....numerous communities weren't so lucky, especially Wimberley, Texas....they had the river overflow and extreme flooding with loss of life. We had been there a year or so ago..stayed at a quaint motel right on the banks of the river....the town is a stones throw from the famous BBQ place called Salt-Lick... a tornado touched down a near Salt-lick and I don't think the Motel survived....

The Rains are still coming....not as torrential as before...but enough to have to cut grass when its still wet and a bit soggy.....Haven't been able or "wanting" to do much with the "Albino Armadillo"(The Casita)...though the Hitchitch keeps raising its head....and of course "old Age" aliments also keep popping out of the box.....the latest is that Plantar Fasciitis has come back with vengeance...on both feet...which keeps my daily walks going a very slow pace and maybe every 3rd day instead of daily and the miles walked to almost nil....

No all has been bleak....we did manage a trip. To Charleston to help surprise SIL with a 50th birthday party.. did not take the Egg....took l-10 there and l-20 back home....had a great time/party...it was a complete surprise to SIL...due to my warped sense of humor, I had to package a bunch of "old F...ts" stuff...most of which I use.. :) It was a fun time and spent time with folks we haven't seen in a while...plus the icing was spending quality time with the Gboys....since the parents where working we got them a couple days....HEHA!

Now we're back and waiting for some sunshine and drying out....I am still trying to decide where I want to go on my Fall trip...part of me wants to venture to the East ...New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, Kentucky, etc...I just don't want to deal with the crowds.....which brings me back to the West....open roads, solitude and magnificent Vistas....though I want to go to places I haven't been before...If anyone has ideas, I sure am open to suggestions!...

In the meantime, I'd like to take some day trips....and get the Camper ready for the Fall.....So for now, I'm staying happy reading Blogs of all you Folks taking those neat trips to include Canada and Alaska....I can only wish......
