Hi all,
I missed you all while I was away, but we had a really great visit with our families in NY and RI. Although, some sadness occurred, as my dad has been diagnosed with ALS and is basically just dying. I am glad he got to see all of us even though it was hard.
Just wanted to check in and say Hi. I missed my farmgirl friends.

Debbie,
So sorry to hear about your dad... My dad died ten years ago next March from ALS. Let me know if there is anything I can do.
What part of New York did you visit? I am heading east for a conference at the end of the month in Columbus, OH. I plan to stay three extra days so I can visit my mom's home town of Jamestown, NY. I haven't been there since 1992.
Glad you're back safely, even if it was a bittersweet trip.

Thank you all for your thoughts. I visited my family in Westchester County (Peekskill), which is about 35 miles north of New York City.
Karin,
Thanks - my dad must've had this for awhile cuz he is going downhill so quickly. BTW-my sister went to college near Jamestown - St. Bonaventure. I really love that part of the state. Have fun.
Debbie
