Saying Good-bye and Getting Ready to Travel

Apex, NC.
60 deg. partly cloudy, no wind.
Forecast today = high temp. 74 deg. partly cloudy, 40% chance of showers, NE winds @ 5 mph.

Jim and Linda took CLT and headed over to Mike's about 1:30 yesterday afternoon. After a great afternoon of visiting, it was time to give hugs and say good-bye. It's always hard to leave your loved ones, but new adventures await around the next curve, and we will be back here again. In the meantime, phone calls, e-mails, and cards and letters will keep everyone updated on what's happening.

This is another reason that I started this blog. At any time, any of Jim and Linda's kids, grandchildren, relatives or friends, can get on the Internet, and find out exactly where we are and what is going on in their lives. I used to send out a Monthly Newsletter by snail mail, but by the time it was received, we were long gone from where we were when it was mailed, and the news was way out of date.

After Jim and Linda left Mike's, they decided to go to Perkins to get something to eat. CLT tells me that he thinks that they had breakfast for dinner! Humans, I'll never figure them out.

Anyway, they got back here to the campground about 6:30, and started getting me ready to travel today. Jim filled my fresh water tank because the water here is quite good, and the water at Joe's in Virginia Beach is quite bad. Then he checked my tires and awnings before coming in to watch TV. While Jim was doing that, Linda started putting stuff away inside of me.

You remember me telling you about the Used Car Lot across the road from me? Well, he's still there, and the lights were on all night again. Oh well, it doesn't really matter now. I'm leaving here today!!

Hmmm, haven't heard anything from Roland lately. Maybe Jim or Linda will call him today.

Did you know that there are almost twice as many people in Rhode Island than there are in Alaska?
