Good Morning

Back to work today after 5 nights at Jetty Park at Cape Canaveral. We had a really good time and have made reservations for next year. Now I have to give the motor home a good cleaning. Lots of sand in the motor home brought in by us and the doggies. I have the motor home parked at the house and plan on moping the floors tonight after work so I can put it back in the storage garage.

Richard, I hope you can get your health issues under control and you get to feeling better.

Good morning everyone. I still have a long ways t go. I am so uncomfortable with the catheter. I just can't find any way to sit without hurting and pressure. This morning was the best I have felt, but when I tried to sit down to eat the pressure went straight to the top on my head as if I would explode. The doctor won't take it out until Monday so I have to live with it until then. Yesterday was a bad day as was Sunday.

The fur gang is will and Sue is such a help, wouldn't not know what to do without her. I wish everyone a blessed day. Be sure to give the fur babies a hug for me and be sure to tell someone you love them.

Richard I know Monday can't come fast enough for you. Sure hope they can get you fixed up.

We are at Riverside RV park in Sevierville. They made some changes to the park. They added a fenced in doggie park in the big field . They closed in the Pavalion, it looks like they put doors on all the openings. We have our Grandson with us and he wants to do everything. Originally we were scheduled to leave on Sunday and head to Nashville, with everything he wants to do we extended our stay here until Wednesday of next week now.

We are seeing these little black bugs. To me look like a deer tick. We went to the park yesterday and the Grandson and I went up clingmens dome. These little bugs were all over the rails some say they were ticks and others said they were not. They said they saw them fly. I did not they are about the size of the pusher on a pen and shaped like a tick.
We will just have to keep a good eye out for them.

Good morning everyone. Dan wish we could be there with you. You are in the most beautiful country on earth. The Great Smoky Mountains have always been a draw for us. Enjoy your stay and post some pictures.

I am still struggling day by day. I called yesterday to see if I could get the catheter removed and the doctor advised against it. They have set aside enough time on Monday to deal with whatever happens. It seems the problem I am going through was building to this point and now it has to be dealt with.

I wish everyone a blessed day. Be sure to give the fur babies a hug for me and be sure to tell someone you love them.

Richard,
Garland and I are so sorry you have to go through this ordeal. [emoticon]

Dan, did you walk up to the observation tower on Clingmans dome? That was really beautiful, but I'm not sure my knee would let me make the walk now.

Richard, I hope you recover rapidly. I know the chronic problems associated with aging can be trying but hope, faith and a sense of humor seems to help us. We're with you in spirit.

I tried to walk up it. I am terrified of heights. I seamed to get half way up. Then my legs started shaking and I started to get dizzy so I stopped and waited for the Grandson to go up and take some pictures.

Thanks to Mountainbird the little black bugs has been identified. It appears to be called the Yellow Poplar Weevil. ( flying tick ) it is harmless to humans. Sounds like it is another tree killer.

We saw the Hatfields and McCoys last night. It was a good show with lots of laughs.

Food was great also.
