In the house, yes, settled - that's another matter!  But I have plans, I do.
Whatever happened with the pix from that lunch in OKC? |

Well, it was kind of exciting. One night there were some tornado warnings not too terribly far away, so I spent the night in the shower house - nice and sturdy. I decided after that little experience that I'm far too old to enjoy sleeping on a cement floor, even with some extra padding. After that I figured I'd just take my chances. I had aches and pains in places I didn't know I had! But tipping over wasn't a big worry - if it had, the camper would have just leaned against the fence and I'd have had about a 4' drop to the ground. Sooner or later someone would have showed up with a truck and tipped it back upright again. And it wouldn't have done any more damage to the camper than the trip itself did! |

And CG, do I ever have some bug stories for you!  |

Lots of bug stories. For instance, did you know June bugs get hysterical when their bony little toes get tangled in long hair? The decibel level goes up about 3 notches. And when they finally get free [I should say when I pull them out], they leave a few legs behind, which can only be removed by serious brushing. |

I know a fast and easy solution to that particular problem,
but I don't think you'd like it.
(Hint... It involves a razor.) |

I thought of that - briefly. But I like my hairs long, and I really didn't care for the thought of those bony little toes tippy-toeing across my bare scalp. |
