VACATION OVER

Dear FFF

Have had a ball the last three weeks but now I have to move on.  My friend Jo Ann, who lives in Albuqurque is in the process of moving and could use some help.  Now, who has any more experience in packing than yours truly?

I am going to drive back to Columbus this Thursday (about a 10 - 11 hour trip) watch Abbey in her play Friday night (Singing in The Rain) then fly out of Columbus for NM on Saturday morning.  Another adventure!

I did get a chance to go to a couple of blue grass jams with my friend Mary Walter.  She is the one playing the guitar................what fun!

Will let everyone know what is happening when I get "out west".

Love, GJ

Dear FFF:

I'm STILL on vacation!!!  Mary Walter & Blount have graciously invited me to stay with them as long as it takes to find a place to rent.  In case you don't remember them, they are the folks Mary Houchen and I came down to meet four years ago when I returned that book that had been ''captured from the Blount House back during the Civil War.  Their house is fabulous and is right on the Palmlico river.

I have talked to the churches and senior center and left my resume and references so, hopefully, they'll find a place for me...............until then, I will stay here and try and pay my way.  I've been enjoying cooking dinner and finding some outdoor work to do.  AND, they have the sweetest little dog (Maggie) that loves walking a couple miles a day with me. 

Wishing everyone a Blessed Easter........................love, GJ
