You all know that I don't pack, Peg does it for me and what a GREAT job she does too. Having said that "I'M ready and waiting for Den to arrive so we can get on our way.
Know why we altered our original plan to head south instead of the original "Northern Lights tour?" If you live in one of the 50 states then you know we had enough of the white stuff this year so south warm sounded much better.
You may remember we did not visit New Orleans on the first trip - Why? Me! Remember after Katrina and how the rest of the country opened our hearts and homes to those who were suffering? Well my city, Philadelphia, was no exception. We took in folks, sent supplies, money, volunteers, etc.. The FORMER mayor, Ray N. even visited us and said all the right things in public while in our city. Then when he returned home he was asked about Philly and replied in very dispariging remarks that our city was ... well dirty, you know Philly ... Okay Ray as long as you're Mayor and the people reelected you, you don't need my money in your city. Another election, a new Mayor and here I come.
