It was near "0" here this morning but there will be some sun. In an hour or so, I'll get out to brush a little overnight snow dusting off the deck, walks and drive so that whatever solar energy there is can help prevent any ice formation.
Suggest that you all use the large, bold type options so that these entries easier for G'ma to read. Thanks. This is Large & Bold!
Mark's travel plans are certainly varied and have to be demanding.
Know that he can keep all this straight. We wonder about Domino's trip to Branson. When will this be and realize it is probably related to Show Choir activity and wonder if it is in a competative setting. Hope we hear more about this. Has she had any luck getting a cousin e-mail exchange/blog underway?
Do hope that the RO'C's trip to Orlando will be at a time of good weather. The tornado activity in that area yesterday would really be terrible to encounter.
Think now we will be heading for the SW on Feb. 22 or 23. Had the RV over at Peter Fickau's yesterday for some check-up details. Hope for
some milder days for packing and preparation.
Have been able to arrange a frequent flyer trip to Boise to enjoy more
of Freya's progress and discoveries. We will leave on April 19 and return April 29. Had to do some juggling to find open seats on days when they were available on the needed connecting flights in Minneapolis. Will hope that Idaho will have some more snow and rain in the meantime, as Matt tells us that things are really dry.
Hope that Maura and Tim pick a weekend which will have favorable weather for both driving and enjoying things with Stephen in Carbondale.
As we plan to head for St. Louis and then directly to Texas when we depart, we hope for good weather, too, as we head south from Beloit on I-39.
No doubt, Michele and David will really enjoy having the O'Connell Long gang with them at Easter. That should be a nice break for them.
We told Magdalena early in January that we might try to see her in rowing events over the Easter weekend, but with our other travel plans, we decided that we didn't want to try to make a hurried trip at such a heavy travel weekend. Will make a more concerted effort to be with her for a September event.
Saw our new urologist in January. Mom is involved with some follow-up testing so that he can have a better idea for her future. He determined that I'm OK to see him next in Jan. '08 and I already have an appointment.
Enjoyed a Catholic Schools Week visit with the current St. Joe's staff at an open house after mass last Sunday. While the enrollment is down, things seem to be going pretty well. All your graduation pictures are again displayed and tastefully arranged. It is quite a gallery now after 50+ years.
Love and prayers, G'ma and G'pa
