Hey there! We are taking a much needed refreshment break. They guys weren't able to shower this morning, and it was HOT and SWEATY on the ship.

BTW, PE reminded me, and I forgot to mention, to tell you that we passed the Hobbit Hole Sports Bar on the way into town yesterday.

Yes, we remembered second breakfast and elevenesies. We are about to journey off to find lunch.

So, did the guys get to enjoy the shower in yours and Bittygirl's room? Or didja make 'em tough it out? ~grin~

Guess we need to moot someday at the Hobbit Hole Sports Bar. Where is that? Never heard of it?

Speaking of Hobbit Hole. Did you see the post about Corin's nephew that we'd sent packages to? Had a wreck in Killeen Thursday and is in Scott and White. My first stop today was to run down there and take him a basket filled with traditional Troop Package goodies. I visited for about 10 minutes, met his mom and sister and about a dozen soldiers.

The man is in remarkably good spirits for the extent of his injuries. The first thing he said to me after I told him who I was --- "Thank you."

I cried. Still having trouble keeping dry eyes and that was 6 hours ago.
