dodging too. Hanging in there for you CathyZ and Sandy

What a trip we had, I'm at least 20 LBS heavier but had such an amazing time dining everywhere OH! BOY!.

I seemed to have lost my camera between last minute packing and getting into the car (still can't find it) so the first 2 weeks of pics are mostly on my DD camera but sweet DH bought another one that is both shockproof and waterproof...I dropped it the 3rd day! and used it tubing down the Wisconsin river for 4 hours...WHAT a blast.

Skimming very quickly through the posts this page I am pleased to hear good news of Marge and that DJ is OK and Cici too.

Ang, your garden is my envy..I arrived back to find that darling DH of mine turned off the water...the gardener could not water, even the chickens and ducks...poor man had to carry water for the birds from a neighbour!

Lost the super, bearing, avocado tree, the rosemary, 2 citrus trees, rose bushes and smaller plants. I am not a happy camper about this, how-ever the fowl seem OK, just not laying.

It is DARN! hot, too hot to think, so that maybe a reason for no eggs too.

The cat snuck out too, the day we brought her home from a 3 weeks stay at the kennels...I so hope she will come back. She was /is just the most adoring cat ever (andf I dont really like cats) she would meet us at the door after every time we had gone out, now matter time of day or night.

The darling Sheltie we have is just fine, he is 13 years old now and has seemingly gone absolutely deaf these past 3 weeks staying with another DD. He is due for a vet visit next week.

I will post some highlights of the trip, food wise, in a few and try to post some pictures too.

 
Thanks for thinking of us, joanie. Hope your kitty finds her way home!

Sounds like you've been having an adventure - can't wait to hear more smileys/smile.gif

We're fine for now - the Big Island is getting the brunt of the storm, with 20-foot waves, and high winds as they wait it out.

 
Hi Joanie, welcome back...

did you by any chance go tubing down the Apple River? Isn't that fun! We used to go tubing in the summer and had such a nice time.

 
Thanks Sandy, I did miss popping in in the early am....it is always such a pleasure to come here!!!

I have posted a long account below.....I had a day of sore throat so took the time to write down some of the highlights...this trip was the first I've ever had where it seemed where ever we turned it was to eat....out! Usually we are so involved in sport and the eating is secondry along with the shopping and cooking, with only the odd meal out. But what fun it was.
