Good morning, Netizens...

 

I regret to inform everyone that I may be absent from this fine Blog for about five days. There has been a death in my extended family and my family and I are leaving sometime late tomorrow to drive to Nebraska and attend the memorial for Suzie's dad, who passed away day before yesterday at the ripe old age of 94 years of age. I have already contacted JeanieB and she will be keeping an eye on things in my absence. Given the size of the families involved and my temporary location in rural Nebraska near Lincoln, I may not even have Internet access for the duration of my stay. Having said that, I will try to keep in touch.

 

The drive promises to be interesting, of and by itself. We will be driving through the snow belt, and arriving in Nebraska into 50+ degree weather in a relatively new car of which I know very little. The passes East of here are receiving snow as we speak. Great! Just what I wanted to hear!

 

So with some trepidations about the trip and sadness for Suzie's Dad who was a remarkable man in life, I will hopefully be returning sometime next Monday.

 

Dave
