But I do “want to come back for more”!

FINALLY!  Saturday March 7 2015 is my expected date to leave.  Hopefully I will be packed up and ready to fly between 5:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m..  I Have a luncheon date in St. Louis with a very special hunk of a man! (And his wife).  And when I say hunk, I mean hunk!  He is my beloved nephew Eric, first born son of my late brother.  Eric is as special as he is big.    When I get there I’ll take a picture of this late middle aged nephew of mine and show you just how handsome he is.  Maybe just being handsome runs in the family.  Eric has a heart for the Lord and his spirit is gentle.  In my eyes he is a gentle giant in so many ways.  I look forward to visiting with both Eric and his wife.

Between flight take-off in my little Silver Fox (yes, my car has a name too, as well as Soul) I have about 10 more days of preparation I’d like to do.  So I must zoom it all in three days and still make sure I have time to go and say my farewells to two more beautiful men, my precious grandsons ages three and seven.  I think the farewells will be the most difficult part of the “getting ready to go” aspect of my journey.  Then one son, one daughter-in-law and my precious husband of 42 years I must bid goodbye.  And that is the sum total of my family living in Wisconsin.

I’ll try to post another update on Saturday night when I reach my destination of Rolla, Missouri.  Must sign off as I actually need to accomplish a few thousand things today.
