Preparing to Head to FL

We're in the midst of getting things ready to leave for FL on Friday. Lots to do before we pull out about 4:30 Friday morning - packing, yard work, doc appointments and golf.

Audrey said yes to my replacing my old MacBook. Considered the new Apple Air but settled on a MacBook Pro. The Pro has more memory and disk storage space along with a faster processor. It will allow for easier work with photos and videos.

See the attached slideshow using the new system - used the new iPhoto. It shows our trikes in the Liberty. We were afraid we'd have to leave Audrey's trike at home and have her ride her road bike. Now she will have both. There is one item still to go into the Liberty - golf clubs.

Speaking of golf. Last week when playing with my friend, Gil Moore, I witnessed his hole-in-one. I took the below picture of Gil retrieving the ball on the 9th hole at the Ayden Golf & Country Club.





Guess that's it for now. The next update will be after we get on the road.

The best to all.

Testing the iPad

This is a test using the iPad to post to the blog. The iPhone app, BlogPress, works well. If the iPad works as well posting to the blog using BlogPress, it sure will make posting easy.

As a part of the test, below is a picture of John & Pat Lively taken in front of their new Country Coach Intrigue at Lazydays.



At his moment I am sitting in our new coach at the house enjoying the atmosphere of a much more spacious living area compared to the CC -- while watching TV using the satellite system. Speaking of the satellite system. We have a Direct TV technician coming to check the system because at times the HD function does not work. We have had trouble viewing the HD channels at times. Direct TV thinks there is a problem with an adapter that is installed on the HD receiver.

Not much else to share unless you care that there is lawn work to do and that Audrey will head to Greenville for a haircut while I hangout at Barnes & Noble.

Best to all.

Visiting in PA

Been in PA since Tuesday staying at our daughter's house in Mechanicsburg while enjoying being with family. Visited with my 95 year-old aunt in Harrisburg who is doing well considering her age.

Drove to Frackville, PA on Friday to have an early Christmas celebration with my other elderly aunt 93 who is amazing. She continues to live alone and even
drives locally - she drove to the Cracker Barrel where we met for the celebration.

See a few of the pictures taken during the special day.

On the return trip from Frackville, there was a short stop at the Hollywood Casino to try and win the big pot. Denise, our daughter, had never been to the casino that is only 20 miles from her home. Guess what? Each lost $10.00.

I must let you know that there was some golf played while here. See the picture of my grandson,
Justin, and his dad, Rob.

Justin and Rob.



We're heading back to NC with Audrey at the wheel and will begin to get organized for the FL at the end of the month. There is much to do as we leave for the Sunshine State the earliest ever.

All for now. Take care all.
