Wed. 26 March 2014. Well here it is almost two weeks since our last post. We received the sad new that our brother-in-law Tom Ball was very seriously ill and we decided to head home as soon as possible. We spent 14 thru 18 March in Paradise Oaks planning our trip home (Dillsburg), saying goodbye to our friends and having a final meal with the kids and grand kids. Diane did make it to bingo two more times. I returned borrowed items to Len and Matt, reinstalled the bike rack, filled propane tanks and generally got the motor home ready for travel.
March 19 thru 23, traveling to Dillsburg. We had an uneventful trip. We stopped in Kings Bay GA, St George SC, Fayetteville NC, and Ashland VA. The weather was really nice, temps in the high 60's and low 70's. Until we arrived in Dillsburg. We were just getting ready to leave Fayetteville when we learned that Tom passed away.
Since arriving in Dillsburg we have had cold, cold and snow, snow and wind and can't forget cold. Morning lows in the teens and high in the twenties or thirties. The water hose froze last night and we had to fill the propane tank once already. We have visited Bev a few times as well as other family members. Services will be this Saturday and things should slow down a bit.
We will get back to the regular post hopefully next week.
Brad and Diane
