Day #4 - A DAY OF REST :)




Okay, so these pictures are from DAY #2 but I finally found the camera cord so I'm catching up :) The washtubs were on the lawn with the goats at a house in front of our hotel in Warrenton, MO and THE HIDE OUT....Beer Food & Fun! was our next door neighbor. We admit to being tempted to find out what the "fun" was all about, but our good sense got the better of us!
Today I was up at 2 am - don't ask me why - and we had to leave for the airport at 4:30 am. I was back in the hotel by 7:30 and tried to catch up on some sleep, which never works - at least not for me. So....I settled for a swim in the pool and relaxing in the hot tub for about an hour, then getting set up for tomorrow's presentations. Went to the mall in town to visit with Sara and Tina and then drove to find tomorrow's schools which, as it turns out, are quite close to the hotel. Tomorrow I will have three school visits and my talk at the Eaglecrest Retirement Community. Freddy....if you're reading this....I still remember your advice and will take it to heart at Eaglecrest!
See you tomorrow :) p.s. HAPPY 50th BIRTHDAY to my "little" brother Brian!

Well, weren't you and Donna the lucky ducks to have found such a lovely place of abode? I practically envy you the goats and you just know I am coveting those beautiful lawn decorations.

So glad you are in a more comfortable setting, where you can at least relax and sort out your thoughts before jumping in to it, all at once.

Happy Birthday, Freddy! I'm glad Donna has people like you to depend on.

Have fun, Donna. You're gonna' do alright.
