A Notice

This post is difficult to write.  I will be out of touch for over two weeks.  I intended to go to California to attend my granddaughter, Rachel's graduation and had planned on leaving  June 4.  Plans suddenly changed last night.  I called my daughter and found out that she has a crisis and I need to go be with her.  I will be leaving in a few days and won't return until June 12.  

My daughter's computer died so I will be without access during the time I am there.  I would take my laptop, but I have to take my cameras and equipment for the graduation ceremony.  I just can't miss filming that special event.  Therefore, I do not have the strength to lug two pieces of heavy equipment on the plane.  Beside you are only allowed 2 pieces of carry-on luggage and I have to take one small suitcase to put my medicine and CI equipment in.  

Traveling when you are old is a real pain.  (pun intended).  When I was young I could throw in a few T-shirts, jeans and toothbrush and get by.  Now I pack like I am moving to the Arctic.  The layered look works for me as I am cold when others are hot.  But that means taking clothes for all temperatures. Lots of clothes.  Sigh!

I deeply regret not being with my blogging friends when I may need them the most.  But my daughter's needs come first.  I hope you have a nice rest over the Memorial Day weekend.  I will be thinking of all of you.

If a miracle occurs and I have access to a computer I will check my e-mail and blog.  If not, I hope to be back blogging by the middle of June.  Don't forget me and please check back in then.
