The Beach View
Well my loyal readers (all two of you lol) we are off for five days at the beach. This can be good or bad. It is a campground with over 100 sites but it is on a first come first serve basis. It is four hours away and it is all a gamble. We have only been once when we did not find a spot and someone left the next day and we moved right in. And we do not have a plan B. I am a Virgo, am over organized. The not knowing sends me into a panic.
The Dolphins Go By
We may or may not have cell service which may mean no hot spot. I am kind of scared thinking I may not be able to connect to blog land. If nothing else I will have plenty of time to write. Well, until the battery runs down in my computer. Of course I can charge it when we run the generator, but hubby is not a fan of running it needlessly. He looks at my blog as I am just wasting my time, playing on the computer. I look at it as a relief from all the voices in my brain. Don’t laugh, if you are a blogger you know what I am talking about. I guess I should not say more in case he actually reads this. He doesn’t usually, but weirder things have happened.
Well the house sitter just got here, so I have to run. We live so rural (but not too rural) so we don’t like to leave the house alone. I always feel like it may get lonely and run away!
Wish us luck and I will post when I can!
Good luck getting a pitch – beach looks sublime! Have fun – the house will just have had a party while you’re away. 😉

Thanks! We got a flat tire and are sitting on the side of the freeway waiting for the guy to come fix it. Yikes! At least we have cell service and I could get on the internet! The big trucks shake us each time they go by, a little scary.

Enjoy an have fun. My mom loves your posts, the letters of your father are like sitting in a time machine. I like the music of this era. Can wag my tail to the rhythm of “In The Mood”.

Thank you! I have a post in a couple of weeks where Dad talks about a couple of songs and I found links where you can listen while you read. Thanks for the compliments!

Cannot change a tire? Blasphemy.

Dude! I have been changing tires since I learned to drive. My dad would not let me drive unless I could. (I can also change the oil, and filters AND replace most belts) One time on the side of the freeway in a dress and high heels. lol I had to jump on the lung wrench to break the hold the lug nuts had on the tire. Quite funny now! The motor home is a whole different ball of wax. You need a special jack (to big to carry in the motor home) and a pneumatic wrench to get the lug nuts off. Trust me if we could have done it our self we would have. lol

LOL… The motor home was so small, I missed it… Well, OK… You’re excused. 🙂

Good luck to you and have a very relaxing trip (I hope). And I know what you mean, my husband thinks I spend far too much time in blogland. I tell him that I have discovered a whole new grouping of friends, those that I have yet to meet!

Have a fantastic ocean break, love the ocean. Helps one recuperate ones soul. And the journey getting there is special bonding time. I hear you on the blogging aspect, my hubby is the same. Chat soon, hugs.

Have fun and relax and enjoy the beautiful seashore! ..and sad to say (sorry Mustang.Koji) I can not fix a flat, don’t care to know and don’t want to know, that is why I carry a cell phone!! LOL If I could I would not even be driving. Kudos for you Nancy and anyone else who can work on the basic car repairs. ~Patty

That is why I have a house sitter with a really big gun, in fact it may be a machine gun!
