CLASS OF 2007 follow along with us. Options

[Howie & Norah]

We had such a great time visiting with Marsha and Joe last night. We really have had fun seeing so many of our friends as we rolled along from Virginia to Arizona. Fay and Jay really showed us a great time in the RGV; and seeing John and Lora was such a treat.

Today we'll head over to Saguaro SKP for a month.

Holy Cow Bob! I really admire your patience with them border guys. I'd probably be in jail for assault. Glad you're finally on your way south. Maybe we'll see you some where this winter.

Those situations are actually much more stressful for Marilyn for precisely that reason. Our ancestors came from County Cavan in Ireland and they were scrappers. My G.Grandfather died shortly after a bar brawl and his violent temper flows in all our veins. So Marilyn has to deal with the stress of any particular situation we may be involved with plus the stress of never knowing when I might go off on somebody. I've never actually been in a fight in my life but my mouth has often made promises that my fists could never back up. However I was on my best behaviour this week.

Bob & Marilyn, Welcome back to the states sure hope your stay here will be an enjoyable and safe one. Not sure I could have been as patience as you two were.

Bob & Marilyn.....You must have the patience of Job....I like others would have been at my wits end.
I thought that the computers were set up so that after crossing the border multiple times you sorta showed up as a good guy.....guess not. We are just glad you have "arrived".

Patti & Hank..looking forward to Sunday.

We left the terrific company of Howie and Norah this AM, they went west and we are headed east. We are in TEXAS now, sitting at a rest area eating lunch.
We do want to be in Donna TX for Thanksgiving.

Everyone BE SAFE

Bob, sorry about your troubles at the border. I guess the lesson here is never joke with a government employee. It is my experience they have no sense of humor, a job requirement I am sure.

I was given a fix-it ticket because I did not have metal ends on a yard stick. I owned a craft store and we sold ribbon by the yard. The inspector from weights and measures told me about the metal requirement and I jokingly asked him if he had ever tried to screw a little old lady out of a quarter inch of ribbon. He then informed me if I did not correct the problem when he returned, he would shut us down.
Serious crime, cheating on ribbon.

Hope the remainder of your trip does not have any more of our official numb skulls.

... I guess the lesson here is never joke with a government employee.

Who was joking? The only reason we leave is because it gets cold. That comment may have been a visible trigger but we were doomed long before he asked the question. In retrospect I think once we went inside we were going home. The officers' actions were more consistent with establishing proof than they were with determining elegibility.
