Happiness is not a station you arrive at,
but a manner of traveling.Margaret Lee Runbeck |
Tracey picked the first tomato of the season and it is purty! I’ll bet she beat everyone in growing this tomato so fast because it was in our sunroom. Take a look at the picture below ... you won’t believe the size of this thing!
We spent yesterday packing, listing and checking our lists twice. This may be the last entry for a while because we don’t know where we will find free WiFi along the way. I put together a few things for each days blog just to ease your addiction ... I couldn’t just let the pages go blank cold turkey! I hope to be able to upload some entries along the way and pictures too. It will all depend on the ability to connect to the Interwebs. We will be taking Tracey’s laptop with us but I am sure there is no Internets on the train unless we luck into a stray connection at some random station along the way. We will be checking our email when we can so feel free to write as usual, it just may be a while before we can respond. |

Weather Man Question
A certain news anchorperson at a Detroit television station is in future likely to think a little longer before she speaks. The previous evening, the station’s weatherman had predicted a heavy overnight snowfall; yet nary a single snowflake fell.
The following evening, by way of introducing the weather forecast, the female news anchor turned to the prognosticator and queried, “So Bob, where’s that 8 inches you promised me last night?” whereupon the weatherman lost all composure and with tears of laughter streaming down his face, had to leave the news set, as did most of the entire broadcast production crew.
With unmanned studio cameras slowly drifting upwards to reveal racks of ceiling-mounted lighting, fits of laughter continued uninterrupted for more than four minutes of the live-to-air broadcast. |
