And the sun came out

Dear Family and Friends,

This has been a good day with lots of fun parts, most fun was picking up the girls and delivering them to their mother this evening in Brentwood.  Just to hear them discuss life, have arguments, try to win the other one over in a discussion, its great stuff.

If Steve feels well they plan to drive to LA tomorrow as a family.  The van is as ready as I can make it, brakes work well, power steering no longer groans and complains.  Car seats are in place, now to get it washed and its ready for the trip I think, hope.

My vehicle is easier to prepare.  Since Sylvia went through it last fall and got everything in order its just a matter of carrying ones clothes out, take some food and hit the road.  This weekend looks like good weather so the trip should be really great.  I'm looking forward to trains with Timothy and catching up with Mia, she is such a big girl that she eats people food now!  Of course it will be good to see jason and jo who have been through a lot recently with the illnesses.

I saw a property today in Brentwood in the 55 and over area.  The gentleman had the place in such great shape and in the conversation I learned that both he and his neighbor lost their spouses and eventually married.  They seem very happy and are enjoying this part of their lives very much.  They also motorhome so we had a nice chat about ideal motorhomes versus what we own, can a guy every be really happy with his coach as long as there pusher diesels out there taunting us?

Well for now its bed time, thanks for reading my musings.  The next one will come from Monterey Bay Academy and probably be written on the iphone so it will be shorter as it takes a longer time to write on that keyboard.

Love to all,

Tim
