I must apologize... I should find time to post to our trip report.
There have been good reasons... the biggie is always the time that it takes to prepare the pictures.
We came home after 7 weeks of what we planned to be a 14 week trip.
1) Janet injured her shoulder on the 3rd day out... but toughed it out. We just found out that she'd torn scar tissue around her rotator cuff... where she'd already had two surgeries.
2) She was having trouble seeing and taking pictures was very hard for her... she had cataracks get bad only 6 months after her last exam. She had surgery in her left eye two weeks ago... a multifocal lens was put in to to replace the clouded one... she won't need glasses after the right one is done in a couple of weeks. I am busy doing the household stuff and putting more drops in her eyes than you'd believe. We think that she may end up moonlighting as a sniper.
I have managed to upgrade our camper... 1081 nights in the last 11 years has worn out the dinette cuchions, the bed mattress, the trucks springs, and we still had some 1141 incandesent bulbs to up grade, etc
I've actually made an inroad on these things. More on them later..
We hope things stabilize soon... the pains would be over... and so that the trip report will be done... and we can plan on a fall trip.
