Jan. 12, 2008




Our first day we intended to fly to Kansas City, but our blue skies ended just outside of that city and we decided to spend the night in Lawrence. Our blue skies continued down to Tuscaloosa Alabama where we stopped for lunch. We took a taxi to the "Bottom Feeder" which was only a mile and a half from the airport and cost us $35. After lunch we instructed Ed to go and wrangle us a deal for the ride back. He managed to get us a limo - free. We are now in Winter Haven where Anne-Marie and George have treated us royally. They managed to get us tickets to see Willie Nelson last night and today we are going to Fantasy of Flight.

I am going to try and attach a couple of pictures. It is the first time I've done this so please let me know how it turns out. The first is the picture of the limo, the second is of Willie Nelson and the last is of the mighty Mississippi.

January 10 - The Barcardi Wheezers ( Breezers)



Hello everyone. We are glad that you are able to join us on our trip. We left this morning (Jan 10) and made it to Lawrence - which is just outside of Kansas City. There were a few low clouds and mist so we didn't quite make it all the way to Kansas City. It is nice to have started our holiday. We checked out the tracker once we arrived at the hotel and noticed that it only shows we made it to Grand Island where we stopped for fuel. We checked it all the way here and it was running properly so we aren't sure why it quit tracking for us. We will have to see what it shows tomorrow.
We will keep in touch.

Bye the way, any off hand offensive remarks that may appear to come from Frankie, are actually mine - John. (Anything really rude probably comes from Lorne.)
