That brings us to about 6:00 P.M.. The balance of the day was taken up with a lengthy, needed discussion with Joanne, accounting, updating financial records, etc. until midnight.
This lifestyle is supposed to be easier than this.

Hi, Dad and Jo: Thanks for the picture of Toby in his sling. I didn't picture that his legs would dangle like that. You are lucky he puts up with that.
ReplyDeleteThanks for adding the start and stop locations. As you head south, this will really get interesting.
Good luck getting out of Canada.
