Sounds like you have a great thing going on. No grass cutting to worry about. And a place for the Vette. Who could ask for more! I would be in the pool every chance I got. My dad, rest his soul, use to say I was a fish. Every time I saw water I would try to swim in it. When I was in school, I was on the swim team. You just can't get me out of the water. lol We still have a house and every week we are out cutting the lawn. We have a riding mower so I guess that is not to bad. And of course we have a garage for the motorcycle. Right now we only have the one bike as I had to sell mine as I could not ride anymore. When the spring comes and the weather gets warms, I really miss it.
It must be nice to run into people that you know in town or at your home away from home (Bass Pro). Every once in awhile I will run into people that I worked with. I will be in the store or some place and the will come up to me and they haven't seen me in years. It's nice to be remembered. The oldest daughter really likes working at Dury Lane and working on all the plays. She keeps inviting us down there to see plays. The last one was Spamalot but my husband was sick and we could not attend. Maybe next time. On Thu, Apr 28, 2011 at 5:16 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > Never been their.
