LOL
I should have just said I was glad you were happy instead of posting a smiley that didn't make sense on a page on it's own. Hence the deleted posts. Keep smiling Suze.

A while ago, I was checking how some stuff would look in preview, and the next thing I knew it had posted....and I was not even in the thread I wanted to post in. So I edited it, and it posted again....it was like something out of the Twilight Zone.

These things are sent to keep us humble.

Love you aussie ~ and thank you. ♥

LOL - that seems like something I would do

Hi Suze,

So nice to see your enthusiasm building for your adventure. When will you be making your pass through the southeast? Should be less muggy by the time you arrive.....I hope so anyway.

I sent you a PM Mark ~ still very keen to be able to see you if possible love.

So, if you all knew about me and Geography (or my extremely impressive lack of Geographical skills)....boy would you laugh. You should have heard me planning where I'll be when.....the conversation went a bit like: "So I will be in NY, go across to Ohio, down to Nashville, Alabama, Atlanta, across and up, West Virginia, etc....back up to Maryland, Boston, NY....maybe further up if I can possibly meet Ann and Anna...." folllowed by "Does that make sense?" to which Goat replied something like "Errrr".....

So that's me. Hopefully God will be on my side; I may need a bit of guidance.

Wow Suze, you've got quite the aggressive agenda! You may find the uber app to be useful at times.

venuscat

Hmmm....not a chance Mark. Uber has no cameras (which scares the living daylights out of me)....it is going to be pretty much buses, trains, planes and maybe the odd taxi.

venuscat

And that's only half of my agenda by the way....

Finishing off the trip with two weeks in Cali. Based In SF. You should see the gorgeous bed and breakfast I booked....it's called Petite Auberge if you want to look it up.

One of my favorite movies is "Planes, Trains and Automobiles". Your itinerary reminds me of my uncle (the one who ate chocolate Easter egg plus roast beef interchangeably and who planned to stuff his cocker spaniel in two pieces, with the head coming out in the dining room and the rear end coming out in the ladies powder room). His objective was to visit each state in the Union. He'd get to the border have his photo taken and be off to the next state. There's a place called "Four Corners" where Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado meet. If you stand there you can get four at one clip. Worth a try?

Hmmmm, no PM in my inbox. Perhaps lost in cyberspace.

I must have closed the tab without hitting send Mark....oops....I will re-write it.

Then you're giving up your plan to spend the night in Alcatraz?

Bill.

I just looked up Petite Auberge ~ how wonderful it looks! I can TOTALLY see you staying there. Seems like a lovely place to have a cup of tea in the afternoon, reading some poetry.

I stayed in that area once and remember everywhere I wanted to walk seemed to be uphill....LOL! How can that be?

So excited for you Suze!

It could not be unless you stayed uphill indefinitely. That's what you try for with sobriety. To stay uphill indefinitely. No cable cars to take you back up. You've got to get out and hike it. With time you get less spherical so you don't roll back down so often. The object is to become a cube.

P.S. Of course when you get to be a geezer like me people may think you're "square". They're wrong. With sobriety you get to be a cube. A big, heavy cube! And if I ever start to roll, watch out below!

Thank you!

I am terrible ~ I am thinking of you every day and not communicating. Of course I want to see you love, very much, and I am going to be there...we need to talk. ♥
