Angel and I are staying in sunny south Texas. Butch is putting in three weeks of volunteer work to have the privilege of skiing in Colorado high country . He bought the ski's he is in a toot to use at a garage sale in Denver last summer while we were at Snow Mountain Ranch. Gary and Jason will be joining him up there for a few days of that three weeks. He is leaving here Sunday and driving to Canyon Lake TX just north of San Antonio and riding up with Terry and Lisa Linder who we met last summer at Snow Mountain Ranch. These Texas people are going back for three weeks to get a taste of winter. I think they are all silly but that's just me!For those who wonder I am not taking Butch to San Antonio and will be without a car for three weeks. Before you make him out to be the bad guy that is my choice. It saves me two ten hour days of driving by letting him have the car. In the meantime I am in a park with many friends who are more than happy to help me out.
Angel and I will do fine...it remains to be seen how the ol' guy will do. I am sure I will know before long. Neither of us can remember being apart for that length of time in our 49 years of marriage. Butch used to travel in his job both in sales and in line work on storms etc. but never was he gone for more than two weeks.
I am in the perfect place for him to do this because of the support system in place for me and the schedule here is hectic. Never time to get too lonely...but three weeks will be long enough.
