Countdown - 1

Well, it's our last day at home and we are practically ready.

I cut Terry's hair this morning - he hates having his hair cut and lets it grow too long before getting it cut. He looks very nice with a short crew cut and a well trimmed beard.

We web cammed the kids this morning. JP, Andrea, Emma and Julia are staying with Andrew, Marie, Ben and Beth in Guernsey for a couple of weeks. It was great to see them all - we sang actions songs with the grandchildren and caught up with all the news. We do miss them all while we are away.

All the washing (laundry if you are American) is all done now, everything organised and we only have to pack our few things in a suitcase. We don't carry much as we have a full wardrobe of clothes in our trailer - makes life so much easier.

Our only concern is the weather. It is still very cold with snow and ice so we are keeping our fingers crossed we can get across the M62 to Manchester tomorrow. To tell you how cold it is, they had snow in Guernsey - about 4 inches which lasted for a couple of days.!!! It very rarely snows in Guernsey - exceptional weather for them.

Let's hope it will warm up a bit in Florida, as our old bones are protesting at the cold. Can't wait to see all our friends in Florida and to play and listen to some Bluegrass. Yippee!!!!!
