SO WHAT HAVE WE BEEN UP TO?

Sorry it has been a while since I have posted anything, but I don't want to bore you to death with things that no one cares about.  We have had a few moments worth sharing and I am going to try to repost Tom's singing (by popular demand) do that you can enjoy it ...or maybe not so much.....

Anyway, here are a few of our favorite things:

Tom and I visited Erin Troxell from Clearfield in San Antonio over the weekend.  Erin is an amazing young woman who has recently enlisted as an officer in the US Army and is stationed at Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio.  She has completed her initial training and will be leaving Texas in a week for further training in South Carolina.  She is earning her doctorate and has done an amazing job over the last 20 years working her way through school while working full time raising her beautiful daughter, Hannah, who is currently serving in Afghanistan and happens to be my granddaughter!  I am so proud of them both.  We had a great visit in San Antonio, a beautiful city.  I wish all of the very, very best to both Erin and Hannah....they are both shining stars to me.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, was I ever in seventh heaven when I discovered a beautful, new Barnes and Noble just a few miles from where we live......a shiny new bookstore for me to wander around in.  I plan to visit it often.  

Tommorow night we attend a Halloween party and Murder Mystery Dinner here at the Resort...should be fun.  We may send you pictures, depending upon how ridiculous we look.

I am going to try to get Tom's performance for you next.  Until the next post, have a great day!
