Hello to all,

We are here in Denham Springs, LA. Hanging out with some great friends.
We always know when we get together we will have a blast!

We've been quite busy since we arrived here. This past week we had a great visit with Brandon over spring break.
While he was here we visited The LSU Rural Life Museum, took a tour on the USS KIDD, went to Bluebonnet Swamp and Nature Center and visited New Orleans. Boy, is there some culture shockers there!
Over all we had a blast! Sorry to have Brandon go back home but we know we will see him again soon.

The weather here has much improved. It's in the 80s everyday and around 55 at night.
By the way that full moon the past couple nights has been amazing!

We will be going to visit Natchez Mississippi with some friends tomorrow. Looking forward to spending the day with them.

The foot is healing, if only I rested it a wee bit more it might just heal. Too many things to see and do here!

At the end of the week we will be off to Texas.
Stay tuned for more Blogs.........

Love and miss you all,

Bill & Penny

Hello to all,

Well, we are on the road again. Time to start in on the blog again.
We have arrived in Denham Springs, LA after several months of wonderful weather in Florida.

We met a lot of very nice people in Florida that we are proud to call friends. There are several pictures of them in this blog. We enjoyed things like poker, craft hour, happy hour, beach time, dinners and shopping with them all.

They threw a party for us the day before we left, but we ended up missing most of it because I fell and visited Urgent Care that day. They had fun anyway! :) They also gave us a wonderful send-off the morning we left. Thanks to one and all for the wonderful times.

As many of you may know we made the very hard decision to give Mia to a new family. She is very happy with Nancy & Bob. She will have a wonderful life with them and will live in Ohio in the summer and Florida in the winter. They love her very much. We will see her again next fall when we return to Florida. Thank you all very much for your help in placing her in her new home.

As we travel our hearts are in NY with my Step-Father Tom. He has put up a fight for life that I have never seen in anyone. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers for him. He needs them all as well as does Mom. Tom's failing health has taken its toll on her as well.

Brandon will be visiting us here in Louisiana for spring break. We are very much looking forward to seeing him again.

We love and miss you all.
Stay tuned for more Blog......

Love,
Penny & Bill
