Getting ready to travel

Posted by speagle , 21 October 2011 · 151 views

Some of you may remember my situation with my Mom. Due to health reasons I moved her from Austin, Texas to West Richland, Washington on May 28th. She has a house now with my daughter living with her as a primary care giver. We had not been able to finalize the sale of her house in Austin so that has been hanging over us for the last 4 months.

Well-Saturday (10/22) I fly to Austin to close on the house on the 26th and THEN, get to have my RAV 4 back! Of course, I then have a week or so to drive back to Washington (but just think of the opportunities to collect more "stuff" along the way as well.

Just wanted to share. Hope I can get a few more shots to enter before the contest closes.

Have a GREAT weekend folks
God Bless (and thanks for your continued prayers for me and my Mom [she is doing much better])

Thanks Mervyn,
I am still trying to snatch a few shots now and then and post them. I have no regular internet access as we have had Mom's service disconnected so I am at trhe mercy of unsecured signals now and then. Anyway, maybe someone will try to hijack my site and find this one :-)

I plan on leaving Austin Thursday morning and driving a-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-ll the way to El Paso and spending the night at Fort Bliss. EIGHT hours on the road and I am STILL in Texas :-o

One of the few advantages retired military get is being able to stay on military installations for around $35.00 (US) a night [space available of course].

Thanks for your continued thoughts and prayers.

Ed, all the best to your mother and good luck with the closing.
Let us know what your trip back brings you in way of collectables. I'm already hating you. Ha ha
