| Old gal and me have been sitting here on this new lovey dovey seat planning on going to Quartzite Arazonia next winter. Been checking out RV parks. Found some that sound good. Heck I'm gonna spend more money on LP this winter than it will cost me for 2 months rent. Ya I know lot rent goes up in Jan and Feb. Gots a big flea market there. If her heart problems do not compound, looks like it's almost a done deal. Gots ta get rid of 35 years of "Stuff" first. |

get a trailer for the RV and take '35 yrs of stuff' with you, sell at flea market ------------- I am still confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Ps 27 |

First read this, and thought that would be a great idea for me and the wife to do. Then I realized how counter productive it would be to take the wife to a flea market.....one trailer there, two trailers home. Darrel |

Tom, DO NO RENT!!! It's a lot cheaper in the long run to BUY!! Once you've been there, (during the winter) you'll NEVER come back to Iowa during the winter. ESPECIALLY with ole what's his name,,,,,,,,,,you know, that guy who lives just to the west of your a stone's throw. Buy you a trailer and every year, just after Christmas,,,,,,,,,,GONE,,,till ........... oh end of March of middle of April.... Do it up GOOD!!! Make Momma happy and,,,,,,,oh yeah,,,,,don't forgit them camera glasses... ------------- "Allis-Express" 19?? WC / 1941 C / 1952 CA / 1956 WD45 / 1957 WD45 / 1958 D-17 |

| Ted I'm wishing he did live a stones throw away. Crick running thru me property is called Stony crick. The name says it all. I'd love to pitch a whole boat load of then fist size stones over West. Especially tonight. We're supposed ta get another 9" of cold tonight and tomorrow, hasn't started yet. If'n that happens it'll be a record year for snowfall. You can't put a culvert in the crick. Ma nature will fill it with them stones. |

I'll miss the rest of today (it's after midnight now) because I'll be either shoveling, blowing, throwing or sweeping the 'pretty' from around the house. Then I'll be layin on the floor cause my back will be killing me. So, see ya on Thursday or whenever.... ------------- "Allis-Express" 19?? WC / 1941 C / 1952 CA / 1956 WD45 / 1957 WD45 / 1958 D-17 |

| Had the old gal back to the emergency room for 6 hours today. They give her 3 different bood pressure things before it got down to livable conditions. Maybe they got it figured out now. Last thing they give her, pressure went down almost instantly. Anyway got to eat dinner outta a brown bag again today, about 3:00. Chow was just above cold 🐕 food level. Sure glad I got a new bottle of Tums last week. Anyway she's out in the food processing plant getting ready for her show in Council Bluffs on the 16th and 17th. Dad gumed snow melted a little today. That's a plus. |

Just a suggestion, when my brother started snowbirding to Florida he rented the first year to kind of get the "lay of the land" so to speak and find out what area he wanted to be in. Much easier to shop around in person than on a website. Eric ------------- Life is tough,but it's tougher when you're stupid. - John Wayne |

I hate going to the ER. It's a guaranteed 4 hour minimum even if your the only one there. Glad to hear that the wife came out OK, and may it stay that way. ------------- 1938 B, 79 Dynamark 11/36 6spd, 95 Weed-Eater 16hp, 2010 Bolens 14hp |
