Survivor


I thought you all would like to see one of the items that survived the house fire...this was in the trunk in Daddy's bedroom. And, it's TRUE, of course, even when it doesn't seem that way.
We are all fine in Kerrville. Gary and I worked on the plumbing all day, and then went to Lowe's to replace our grill...you know the one we paid $169 for several years ago. We could replace the disintegrated burners for a total of about $200, so...
Other than that, Landon is working long hours, and is back in the process of restoring the '67 Bronco. He painted it today, and we will have the long awaited photos as soon as it is all put back together. Andrew kayaked the Guadalupe with friends today...he's had a good start to track season, mostly running the 800 and the mile.

I still show up @ school everyday and do my one plus one is two thing. I am glad it's spring break!! No plans, really, unless one of you call with an invitation!!
Gary's been working in West Texas some, staying in Fort Davis. He loves it out there. The big plan is for Gary to meet Justus in London May 6th on Justy's out of Africa trip. They will part in Paris after reliving Dday in Normandy. Justus' plan is to hang around Europe until the end of June. He needs a travel companion for 2 weeks it anyone is interested in backpacking Italy. So, Gary, who missed his calling as a travel agent, is already having fun. They will ride the bullet train(Mission Impossible) through the chunnel, go see King Lear at the Globe Theater, and all kinds of good stuff. We are mostly doing this with freebie miles and freebie hotel points! I tell everyone that I'm sending Gary to London and Paris for our 30th anniversary! But, after all, I got to do London with Linda and Judy and Peggy a year and a half ago.

I would LOVE to backpack Italy, but I'm a little busy for the next couple of months. Maybe in 10 years?
