Hi All , once again it is raining so there is some time for a quick post. Been emptying clothes closets and when you have had 26 years to load them up it seems a bit daunting. So far 41 bags of clothes and shoes and we are still not completely through, this is after the first 35 went in February. Still have linen closets and storage shelves in basement to tackle. Probably another 50 to 60 bag sand these are the really big ones. Some are almost to heavy to lift. Glad the Veterans will pick them up from the front porch. Postings will be sporadic while we are living in our yard in the RV. Have a nice view of pool and back yard.I must say it is a good one.                                     G

Well it finally stopped raining yesterday which allowed us to finally get the fish pond open and the pool is now open and ready to use . The water is 78 and this is really warm for this time of year but it was really nice. Spent almost an hour in the pool and it was great. Still need to do some painting and replace some trim on the out buildings and if I don't have to build an ARK with the forecast of more rain tonight I may be able to complete some of the outside work. Today its and Ultrasound for some kidney stones and tomorrow the Dentist. It seems the faster we go the further behind we get and the days fly by with nothing accomplished , but thats life. Maybe we need a short trip to get back in focus. LOL                          G

 We went and finally got new phones on Wednesday. Even though I have no love for Verizon we have the new I-phone 4s and I think it may make me crazy. This phone could replace my laptop if I new what I was doing with it. We have started the process of slowly changing over our billing addresse to Kelly and Gary's and Verizon was the first. A simple matter you say, not with Verizon.It only took 45 minutes'', and with that and then we started with the phones if you can call them a phone. The camera is better than the last two I bought from Olympus and the e-mail and texting is great when you can do it with Siri, just talk and  it does it all for you. Back to the Verizon store .With all that was done it ended up being a two hour 45 minute process that left me feeling like I had been brain fried and thrown out the door.The moral of the story is don't go phone shopping if you had and evening meeting to go to and didn't have a phone to call with to let them know you weren't coming. Lauren said she felt like Charly Brown after awhile and all she heard was wa=wa=wa-wa-wa .
 Yesterday was my try to learn new phone and keep dry day. 2 inches of rain on Wednesday. 1and a half yesterday and more for today. Grass is growing very fast and yard is looking like a jungle again. We did manage to get what was left of our yard furniture out and set up the two gazibos and started to get the pool ready.                                                                                                            G

We are back in Center Valley and it seems that every time we come back it rains. We arrived home early and finally went and picked up the mail and started home delivery again. Sort of back to normal for awhile. It took the state three month to repave 309. Couldn't believe it, they started back in Febuary and finished today.                                                   G

We were in Center Valley for four days of which it rained two so didn't get much done on the house.  Today we have traveled to Tunkhanick PA and are in Cozy Creek camp ground. It is about 25 minutes from where Gary and Kelly are getting married and about 90 miles from Center Valley. It is quite pretty here and we are in the Endless Mountains Region of the Poconos. Our site is right on the river and is very peaceful. Hope to unwind for a day before the wedding .                                            G
