Monday evening

[Ron Sower]

Aloha friends!

Well, we got home about 8 o'clock yesterday morning. I didn't sleep at all on the plane. We both got our suitcases in the house and then went to bed by 9 AM. We woke up around noon and I felt like I haven't slept a wink.

I don't know if you remember but I had brought home a bunch of fish and plants from a friend's fish room take down They were all in buckets in fishroom and utility room. Guess what!? They were still there when I got home.🤣 so I spent a little time yesterday getting some fish into tanks.

Today I spent the morning communicating with people that had been contacting me about getting fish or plants or shrimp. I also worked up a fish order and a separate plant order. This afternoon I finished emptying the buckets in fishroom. Tomorrow I gotta pick up my fish order and hopefully in the afternoon, I can work on the five or six buckets in the utility room. And I also have somebody coming by to pick up five adult honeycomb plecos. So, you might say, I'm paying dearly for my vacation.!!!

Lucy went over to work with Tami today. They are making things for the craft fair here in the park on the 26th. She was over there yesterday afternoon. Also, these girls are really working hard.

OK, about my trip. The property is actually 62 acres and it really is beautiful. However, there are many steps and arched bridges over water features, which makes it little tough for people with bad backs and knees and bad feet or ankles. Part of the water features they had included a lagoon that was built into the property where they had porpoises and sea turtles. We enjoyed watching them feed the porpoises at the edge of the lagoon.

We spent our last afternoon there driving up the west coast and crossing the tip of the north coast. it was a beautiful drive where we could see the ocean the entire way. We enjoying several afternoons by the pool. One was the adult pool near us, another one was a general pool for everybody. I also read 1-2/3 books while I was there and on the plane home I finish the other 1/3. And started another one!

Hey, Dennis! Thanks a lot for keeping us going! Let me know if I can contribute $$$ to the cause. And I'm sure hoping the docs can get your cancer back into remission. That shit sucks!

Where's Liz?

Barb and Willie, good to see you here and to catch-up with you!

I guess that's enough for tonight. Sleep well folks!
