Trip Log

Alesa paddled this afternoon and Craig and Janet came in about 4 for a weekend stay. They will be leaving Sunday about noon since they have decided to begin the process of moving from Naples up to the Tampa area and will be scouting out homes.

After Paddle Ball this morning we took the material collected at the TBR drive last night to Lake Hills School and they were elated. We also attended a few of their activities and made sure Gabbie, a clown who belongs to TBR, had what she needed to entertain the kids.

Tonight TBR had their quarterly social and we also conducted a clothes drive for the Lake Hills Special Needs School. We collected over 30 bags of clothes and other necessities. We also had a 50-50 and the winner donated his winnings back to the school.

We left Jeff's at about 8AM on Monday, just after everyone had left for school or work. It was an uneventful trip and we arrived home about 11:45PM. We did get to watch Monday night football on NFL Mobile and arrived home just as Dallas was losing in OT.

October 26, 2014

Today was Mike's annual tailgate party and he had quite a crowd of friends, neighbors and relatives. It was standing room only when the game started at 4PM.

Yesterday we helped get ready for the tailgate party. Today I went to breakfast with Mike and we stopped to get a few pieces of lumber to finish the front door frame. We then spent much of the day at the girls' swimming time trials in preparation for their upcoming swimming season.

Arrived at Mike's and got settled into the basement 'apartment' before the Elyse and Annika got home from school. Mike and Lisa got home a little later. Today, while they were all gone, we did chores to get ready for the tailgate party on Sunday.

October 21, 2014

Yesterday we woke up to frost on the windshield but it was melted by the time we went out. We went up to Exton for the day and since we were going right by, I got a flu shot at the Coatesville VA hospital. We stopped at the car dealer to get the nitrogen topped off in our car tires.

Saturday, Bridget was still at an overnight birthday party so we all went to the Wyncote country club to use the driving range and the practice green. The weather has been beautiful, clear and cool, and the leaves are changing, awesome!

October 17, 2014

Left home at about 3AM Thursday and after a few miles, turned around to turn on the A/C just in case it gets hot and humid while we are gone. Got to Jeff's house around 7PM after a long day. No problems except I had to drive the whole way since Alesa had a sore back.
