New Ride

I can't believe we did it. We actually purchased a "new" vehicle, 2o11. Never thought it would happen for me. I am way too tight with our money.

It doesn't look much different from the old one, same color, that way everyone will still know it is me.

Been busy canning tons of stuff, and just trying to take care of myself. It has been a crazy couple of months. John and Annie are in the house, and Sarah and Brian are busy trying to prepare their house for this new little addition. Only 4 weeks to go. Time has really flown.

We went Saturday to see the B17 plane that John's dad was the radio man in during WW2. We actually got to see it take off and l and this time. What a good time for John especially.

This is the radio seat where Bob would have sat. Kinda neat.

We were glad we got to see it again. Sure was a hot day to be out on the pavement.

Off to the produce auction. Needing tomatoes for pizza sauce.

OH, what a week

Huge, terrible, horrific storm on Wednesday. Some places look like bombs were set off. Lots of damage. Sarah and Brian had one of their trees fall on their house. Quite a bit of damage. Won't know extent until insurance adjuster gets done. We helped them clean up some of the stuff last night. WWVA radio towers above Barton (been there for 70 years) are on the ground. Twisted pieces of steel, just toppled. What a sight. Still without electricity. Using generator. Will post pictures when "real" power is back on.

Baby shower tomorrow. What fun.

DC

Just got back from an amazing trip to the DC temple. We had such a good time. Nice to get away for a couple of days.

Ask Dottie about her wet t-shirt contest. The waiter spilled an entire glass of pop on her, along with ice and broken glass. She ate for free that night. Went back to the hotel and hit the pool and hot tub. Could have been worse.

We had such a great time in DC. Great hotel, great food, and great company.
