Well, I have left the probate issues, the lawyer issues, the tax issues for my dear brother to deal with, "closed up" our beach house, said goodbye to the Florida kis/grand and have spent the last 2 days at the farm in NC. This am we said goodbye to the farm kids/grandgirls and yes, I have shed a few tears BUT the car is packed and we are ready for our grand trip across the country. We are so blessed to have this adventure and we are so excited! I found out yesterday we are going to be living in Happy Valley, OR. I took it as an omen. I start at the hospital 4/24 so we plan to see everything we can see by then. WESTWARD HO! I'll keep you posted. Joey

Everyone should drive across the US once. It gives you a real sense of how large the country is. And a deep appreciation for many of the different areas. What route are you taking?

Safe and fun trip!!!

JOEY,
Wish I could hang onto your bumper and tag along. I hear that part
of the country is beautiful. Have a safe trip. I will pray for you
and your family. Time to put giggle in your wiggle and a song of joy
in your heart. You have bee through some very tough and trying times.

Noe it is JOEY TIME! Enjoy all of the sites, and post pics when you can.


God Bless

Ooooops! I misspelled the word "now." I just don't understand how this
happens. All of the letters of the alphabet are on the keyboard. Why random keys jump up and misspell my words beyond me. LOL! (Operator error) LOL!

Bless you friend and farmsister.

I am trying to be the person my dogs think I am.

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Well, I know where Sunny Valley, OR, is but I don't think I've heard of Happy Valley, OR. Where is it?

Here's wishing you a wonderful trip with lots of great memories. Keep us posted on your travels.

And welcome to OR!
