Well, here it is Thursday afternoon and we have arived safely home from Tybee. Tuesday night we went to the low country boil at the resort. The lady that runs this event collects thosezip top tabs. The Scherers and us each had a baggy full of them. I used it to bribe her into letting our table go first in line.
Last night we went to a restaurant we had never been to before. Peg had a friend that recommended it. All I will say is I'm not sure that person really is a friend. It was a rundown bar & restaurant near a boat ramp on a river. The menu was sparse, They had shrimp& crab. Of course for the non-seafood eaters, they di offer hot dogs. We had a good time there and the food was well done, but was a typical fish camp atmosphere. We got some rain on the way home. It was much needed.
Of course I walked the beach this morning, but it was a very disappointing sun rise due to the lingering clouds. In fact none of the sunrises this week were less than great. After the walk & shower, we ate at the "world Famous Breakfast Club". What great food. (eat your heart out).
That's it for now.
Love.

Leading the good life!!!
It's tuesday and we have been here at Tybee since Saturday. The weather has been great and the good times just keep going. Last night we ate at the 'Crab Shack' (eat your hearts out) and I had Deveiled Crab. I have been walking every morning and watching the sun come up. That is the highlight of my day. It has to be a good day when you can hear the ocean, walk along the beach and watch the sun come up to start the day.
We will be home on Thursday evening.
Love.

9/11 Post
I have been reading all the blogs from the family and am proud that you all feel so strongly about this date. It is the 7th anniversary of the terrorist attack on our great nation. I am sitting here writing with a very sad heart and a tear in my eye for all those souls lost on this day. It also makes me so proud of Bryan and all the service men and women who are putting it all on the line to keep this country safe and preserve our precious freedom.
Now that I've said that let me speak of more happy things. Yesterday was Jason's birthday, so we would like to wish him a happy birthday and many more.
Saturday we celebrated Kelly s birthday with a lovely gathering of some of the family. A good time was had by all. Nancy even had bread with the lovely meal. Kelly moved into her own apartment on Sunday, Good luck on the new experience.
Now some preaching!!! This is an election year to elect the next president of these great United States. I won't presume to tell you how to vote, but I will implore you to vote. Please study the issues, listen to the various candidates and vote your conscience. Whatever you do Please vote.
Nancy & I are off again next week. We will be going to Tybee Island (eat your hearts out) on Saturday and coming back on Thursday afternoon. Winnie & Gene have invited us to share their week at Tybrisa with them and we were delighted to accept. So if you call the house and get our house and get the answering machine, call our cell.
Thats about it for now. I will be reading the blogs from the library at Tybee.
Love.

Home again, Home again...You know that stuff!!!
Well we made it home today from Peg's. The weather was great and the traffic was very light. We come home the way Steve makes the trip.
We checked our MPG for the trip home. The first day it was 28 Mpg, yesterday it was 27 MPG and today it was 26.7 MPG. I think the reason todays was lower is all the stops and starts and little towns with lower speed limits and lights.
It has been a great trip and we had such a good time and were able to party with so many wonderful people.
I have no idea when I will be blogging again cause we going back to our everyday boring routine.
Has anyone heard from Heather??? I haven't seen any !!!!!!! in quite a while.
Love.

At Peg's
Just wanted to let everyone know we arrived at Peg & Steves OK. today was the first rain we have seen since we started our trip. The rain was not constant, but it was hard some of the time.
Last knight I checked my gas milage for the day doing 65 MPH or less. It came out to 28 MPG. This was from Re's to Harrisonburg, VA. I was a little disappointed, sine I checked when I first got this car and it was 27 MPG. I really thought it would much more. Maybe I'm expecting too much from my car.
I have been looking for Heather's weekly blog. Could it be that she is not blogging every Saturday like she promised? Ihope everything is all right with her. I really miss the !!!!!!!!!!!.

In VA!!!
Left Re's this morning and made it to Harrisonburg, VA. the weather so far on this trip has been fantastic. For August, it is even somewhat cool. The traffic was fairly light. My experiment with traveling 65 MPH or less is still on going. After I get off this computer, I'll check my MPG.
Looking forward to seeing Peg & Steve tomorrow. We are a little over 5 hours away, so we should be arriving early afternoon.
I hope Peg is able to get home. I saw on the news this afternoon, after we checked in, that there was a computer glitch with the FAA and it was affecting all flights all over the country.
Will be home sometime on Thursday.
Love.

The Jersey joint!!!
We ar at Re's house for the night (Monday). Just had a late lunch with Re & Dot. It was a nice mean.
Yesterday was a really great day. Kate & Joe had a gathering at their house and there were a lot of the family. We got a chance to talk with so many relations and the food was outstanding. Kate's house is so well laid out for large gatherings. Everyon there sends their greeting to our whole family.
I am on Re's computer and although I read all the outstanding blogs, (Peg, Katie & Jim) I am not able to comment on them.
Tomorrow we will be off to Harrisonburgh VA for the night. Wednesday we go to Peg & Steve's. I'm really looking forward to a visit with them ( I hope Peg gets home before we get there.
Love.
