The count down begins

Yes the count down to the Sizzlin Summer Paper Chase is on.
Less than 2 weeks to go.
Be sure to come in to purchase your passport. Tote bags will be here on Friday. I am busy getting every thing together. Dale will be driving the van on Saturday August 2. Be sure to let me know if you would like to be picked upn on the way to our first stop-Lodi. We don't mind making a stop in San Andreas or Valley Springs if that would help you out. The cost of the van tour does not include the tote or passport. Dinner at AppleBee's or Chili's??? Or if you are die-hards we could try to squeeze in Green Tangerine's if you want dinner (take-out) on the road.
We will take the consenses. Minimum travelers for the tour to go will be 6. I'll just get a smaller van. Be sure to sign up early so I can let the stores know we are coming.

been sleeping

oops!!! I haven't written for awhile. Must have been asleep. lol
My daughter and son came home to visit from Reno and then we drove my daughter back to Reno last Sunday. She is still looking for a teaching job and is interviewing. We are keeping our fingers crossed she will pick up a job for this fall. Sadly my son and his wife are having difficulties and it looks like things are not going to work out. My job is going well, how is Dale doing at the store? The first golf trip is scrapped, ask him to show it to you. His photography class is almost over and he is putting his porfolio together, I'll see if he will let me post some of his pictures.

I think that catches you up on our happenings. The next blog will catch you up on the store.
