We are HOME!!!! I am exhausted so I am afraid that you will not hear much about the trip tonight.
We saw Danny O'Donnell, Shoji Tabuchi, Yakov Smirnoff, Andy Williams, The Hughes Brothers, Bobby Vinton and The Baldnobbers. We also saw two Christmas Light Displays and ate for five days.
I have my picture with Danny O'Donnell and Bobby Vinton. It was an exciting trip. The most exciting was that Bart and Barb were able to join us on Wednesday and half of Thursday. We had such a good visit and they both look great. Bart did very well. Crowds do bother him a LOT but he did will at the two shows we went to together. I am glad we didn't push for more though. It was obvious that two were his limit. Barb looks GREAT. She has lost over 60 pounds. I am so glad we had that time.
Tomorrow I will tell you more, when I am more alert

Wow, what a day.
Chelsea let me sleep until 6:45AM. I could not believe it when she jumped up on the bed and whimpered at me. We went right out for our walk. The wind was AWFUL. At several points I was facing into it and was barely able to move forward. Doesn't bother the girl at all. She is just too low to the ground to be affected.
Then, I put in the pan of stuffing that I had picked up from church to cook for the turkey dinner. I took that with me when I went to the 10:30 mass. After Mass, I went down and sold tickets for the raffle of the print, the sewing machine, the afghan and my twin sized quilt until 1:00AM when my replacement came. I got the dinners for us and came home so that Jim and I could go shooting. It was TOO windy to do trap, but we like to keep our hand in on the pistol shooting. We each shot three. My first two were none too good, though the second was better than the first. However, my third was not bad. I got a 65.
When I got home, I got a call from Kitty Klitch at church. I won the limited edition print that she had donated. It is of her Main Street Memories collection and is of the Villager. It is beautiful and I am really jazzed. It has a value of about $250. I love decorating our house with works from people that I know.
Tomorrow, morning Dick and I leave for BRANSON. So - this is my last posting until next Saturday evening. We get to Branson at about noon on Tuesday. We will be going to see Daniel O'Donnell that afternoon before checking into our hotel. Then we will spend the evening at Shoji Tabuchi's theatre. Bart and Barb will be atht Grand Country Resort that evening, So we will be able to have supper with them before going out. The next day we will spend most of the day with them. I am excited to see them and Barb and I are looking forward to sharing our quilting projects.
I will miss posting but will enjoy the trip a LOT more than I will miss the computer.
Someone named Austin O'Malley said "A hole is nothing at all, but you can break your neck in it." I thought it was clever. Have a good week.
Love you
