On the Road again

Dear Family and Friends,
The larger font is for my friend Lois who mentioned its easier to read.

This morning we were on the road at 8:45 and arrived on time in Hercules at 10.  I met a person who has been sharing business with me for years for the first time today.  Alex is a great guy and really gets business done.  The house was nice, the comps nearby and then we were on the road again, this time for the little quaint town of Rio Vista.  We arrived there after lunch at the Olive Garden, their salad and soup is so great.

The house was a big cluttered as the lady likes to collect things but she was great, the house perfect, the bunnies, the chickens, the dogs and the cat were all very much at home there.  Once we were through in Rio Vista we headed out with out trusty McDonalds $1.00 ice tea.  We were only on the road for a bit when traffic came to a halt and an hour later we gave up, turned about and went to Lodi, down 5 and then home on the levee road.  We never learned the reason for the hold up but it was not fun and no one ever tried to let anyone know what was wrong.

A phone call a few minutes ago brought great news.  Art and Connie are coming home from several weeks on the road and they are coming here for the night, to park in my driveway.  I'm thrilled to have them.  I also got a call from the motorhome renters and they are having a great time on the trip.  They called because they were at a RV park and could not get the electricity in the coach to work.  We worked it out, they needed to flip the breaker at the RV junction box by the coach and they were happy again.

More orders today and from a new company or two.  Very thrilling, is there hope?  It think so.

Take care and our expressions of love and comfort go to Wes and Nanette who just lost Wes's mom this week.

Love to all

Tim
