Arkansas - Oklahoma - Texas - Return

I've Had a great Dad visit.  

Also spent Labor Day in Fayetteville, AR with High School friends.

When last we left our hero...    I tied up the boat as if a hurricane might come and walked away, leaving it in Ft. Pierce, FL to fend for itself.

DROVE TO ARKANSAS

Have spent a week visiting with my 90 year old dad working on his to-do list.

 Sudoku puzzles for dad

90 and running through Walmart

Dads favourite pastime.  Meals

He is a good eater!

Dad and I have had a great visit and he is doing well.  One of my 'to-do' was trim his nails.

Next I drive to Oklahoma to visit my older brother Steve and that branch on the family tree.  I hope all are well and that we continue to dodge the storms.

Summer travel about to start....

I'm going to Arkansas to visit Dad.  I've spent lots of time this past week getting the boat ready for any possible future storm that might blow up while I'm gone.  I replaced the old bilge pump.  Used every line aboard to tie up Prodigal.  Removed all windage stuff off deck.  (sails, full enclosure - plastic, bimini top)  That's what's up this week.  I'm packing today and will drive tomorrow.

Last week I also did some bike riding, went bowling and downloaded books on tape to listen to while driving.  Looking forward to my visit.
