Written Wednesday, January 14, 2004 too.
After the tests we went south with Bill & Jo and since we can’t go very far south without crossing the border that is what we did. It hasn’t changed much from years passed. We do get border-crossing reports on the news and the length of time it is taking. For Progresso it has been no delay. We enjoyed a nacho plate at Garcia’s over the Canada Store (pronounced ka-nah-duh). It is the first time I have eaten in Mexico that I enjoyed the food. I didn’t partake of the peppers though.
It was finally warm enough to go on a bike ride. We biked 8 miles and I could have gone much farther but it was probably smart to hold it down for the first time out. I did put on a few extra miles within the park. There are new pictures at My Webshots.

Written Monday, January 12th.
The day zips by really fast, especially when Butch is playing golf and not standing over me saying, ”What are we doing now?” ;-)
The day started off bright, sunny and calm. I downloaded a new book from www.audible.com to listen to while I went on a walk. Stopped at Bill & Jo’s and we booked a tour of King Ranch for February 3rd.
I paid a bill using www.mycheckfree.com. It happened to be my Sam’s Club bill but that is how I pay most of them. I also got caught up on email, did the puzzle from www.jigzone.com. I posted one email from Gary about turning blue. I emailed him and advised him to use either salt or vinegar to set the dye in his shirt. I registered about 5 books at www.bookcrossing.com. I put one in the phone booth and one in the laundry room. Book crossings is a catch and release program for books and an excellent way to keep books in circulation and the weight down in the motor home.;-)
In this particular blog you have been told about several websites that I use all the time. You should be able to click on any of the highlighted sites and be taken to that particular website. Enjoy!

Our son Gary enters racquetball tournaments and was in one in Lincoln Nebraska recently. Following is an email I received from him about the experience.

" I am not real happy with the tournament people from Lincoln this morning. I wore their blue tournament shirt to bed last night and to the Health Club this morning. I caught sight of myself in the mirror on the way to the shower and saw some blue around my arm pit and wondered if I had gotten an injury that I didn't really feel during the heat of a racquetball battle and had some bruising. When I looked closer I realized it was this new shirt bleeding on me. So when I showered I tried to scrub real well and did notice some blue coming off. However, when I got done and checked my cleaning job my blueness looked brighter than before to me! It really looks stupid like I've been trying out for the blue man group or something. Lucky that my work shirt covers it well."
