Good morning all,

      There is much to be grateful here in AZ today. Our cold weather has moved out and today is to be about 90 degrees. Wonderful fall weather has returned. Air conditioner has been off since I arrived home. May need it later today when the sun hits the living room.

     So much to say about my vacation. Most of it was wonderful. Seeing my friends was a treat. Even the memorial for Judy was upbeat and saw friends I hadn't seen for quite awhile. We went out later to hear a local band. The drummer was incredible. Wish I was talented like that. I haven't played the piano or guitar for a long time. Of course, meeting Monica and Carla face to face was great. Too bad my friend was so rude to them.She was in a foul mood. Put a damper on the experience. Went to Disney World and Universal. That was fun but hot and humid. Next we saw my friend's relatives. Spent 4 hours with them. Made me even sadder that I didn't get to spend quality time with my friends. That night our motel was on the ocean. We were on the 4th floor and had a panoramic view. The pool was salt water. Had trouble keeping my feet on the bottom when doing my exercises. We tried walking along the shore, but I didn't get too far due to my knee. We sat outdoors and watched the moon rise over the ocean. It was blood red at first. Never saw it before. We sat there until midnight just enjoying the peaceful and relaxing ocean sounds.

          Next we drove up to my brother's in South Carolina. It was a terrific time but way too short. Jane and I went to the Goodwill and found lots of slacks. She even hemmed them for me. She cooked all the meals to be WLS friendly. It tasted so good to have a home cooked meal after so many days on the road. We also went to a musical that was put on by a local group. It was very funny and we had a great time. We were in the front row.
     Next was the Biltmore Estate. It was beautiful. I want to go back to do some of the activities that we missed.
      Well enough for now. I have 2 appointments tomorrow. Have plenty of things to do here today.    Take care,   Mag
