Woke up at 3:30 AM and could not go back to sleep so got up at 4 and thought this might be a good time to catch up on my blog. Am happy with the scales this morning as they read 125 which is just what they said when we left town on June 30th. Today I must get our Wii board hooked back up to see what it will say in the morning.
We arrived back in Palmetto by 1:00 yesterday, Thursday, then spent the rest of the day with getting settled back in .... unpacking, groceries, mail, laundry etc etc etc
Did watch the whole TdF for the first time ...as we've been traveling since it started we have only seen bits and piece of it... so was great to watch while opening the mail and stuff. Today I need to get my financial bag back from Betty's so that I can get caught up on posting the last 3 weeks receipts to Quicken.
Monday 7/19: Benders Home... Today the guys played golf while I did the laundry and repacked our suitcases in anticipation of our drive back to Florida. Martha called from France so it was great to chat with her about what was going on with them in France... Tonight we watched the DVD Planet 51.. it was okay but not great.
Tuesday 7/20: Judy' House by evening.... This morning were able to watch the first part of the TdF which was great as Lance Armstrong was the leader for about 200 km....This was so exciting for us ..I even took pictures of the TV screen where it showed that he was the leader and that team RadioShack was in the lead for overall team points...but soon it was time to leave for Silver Oaks, the assisted Living place that the guys were to play music for this morning. By noon we were on the road to Kentucky. Arrived at Judys by 3 and spent the evening with them.
Wednesday 7/21: Kens House by evening.... Left Judys by 5:15 AM..decided to go right down through Georgia this time as going thru Alabama added several hours to our trip up...since we were making such good time we took a side trip to Conyers to visit the plant where Phil worked during the time that we lived in Georgia during 2000. Arrived in Warner Robins GA by 4 PM. Took Ken out to eat tonight as he has been our host for 2 nights on this trip... we did Mexican, and must say that I overate my dinner of fried vegetables but oh were they ever good. BTW I have stayed with my Vegan way of eating during this trip and will soon have completed 5 months of not eating any animal products...its called pre planning your meals and carrying food with you.. especially when eating out. Everyone we have visited has been very good about having vegetables and fruits available for me which was a big help.
Thurday 7/22: Left Kens by 5:30 and were home in Palmetto Florida by 1:00...see that I have already told you all about Thursday earlier in my post. This will be my last Memories and Musing Blog as we are no longer traveling......
