A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}

Good to hear from you Burch. I am leaving the end of the month for Indiana. I will go up to Virginia first to see my daughter and family. Then on to Indiana for a graduation celebration. My great-niece was born with a heart defect 19 years ago and had to have surgery in the NICU. She had a kidney that wasn't functioning 100% too. I think that finally resolved itself. She has had a few heart procedures in her young life, the most recent was an ablation to take care of V-tach. She is a sweet girlie and we all love her and takes her problems in stride. She was behind her age group in school, so my niece homeschooled her for two years. When she went back to school, she went into the grade behind her and has just flourished. Her grandmother is a cook and has had her cooking from a very young age, so it's no surprise to us all that she is headed to culinary school. When my Mom died a year ago, she took most of mom's pots and pans and cooking utensils for herself. Mom would have loved it. After that celebration I plan to travel in my new motorhome before attending my 55th h.s. reunion in August in Indiana, then I will probably head home.

Coach House is having a rally in September in Natchez and I want to go to that. After the rally I hope to visit some of Terry's relatives in Baton Rouge and Mississippi. I can see a drive on the Trace for me and the new moho. My favorite all time drive.

Take care, fellow FOOF's.
