[a/s] Sarasota- Friday



Hi Gang,

I was too tired last night to even try to write.  I hope I remember 
everything today.

Started the day playing Frisbee with Tucker.  Brady, my other dog won't play. 
 He would rather sniff all around reading his pmail.

Then George and I went shopping back at the Airstream supply booth because 
George got a tip about a returned window rock guard... one of those Darth 
Vader things.  It was there and he got it.  He was fortunate it fit.  I 
immediately started whining that I wanted one. The guy said he would give me 
a great deal on a new one and got me all excited then he didn't have one to 
fit the wide body.  Now I have to suffer with window envy.

Then we all piled into Bruiser and went to the grocery store, came back here 
and I made lunch.

The day was pretty relaxed, which suited me fine.  We hung around here 
talking about putting up the rock guard and watching George do a bit of 
polishing.  People stopped by all day.

I did go do email and get into a bit of a tif with the guy in the email 
place.    My computer has some funny sounds on it, like a horse whinnying.  
He got all bent out of shape because it was making that noise while it was 
booting up and told me to turn off the volume.  I told him I would as soon as 
it finished booting up which pissed him off even more.  I told him I had to 
wait, I couldn't do it til then... he was pretty snarly by then.  I finally 
got online with George sitting next to me waiting for his turn.  About 4 
minutes into downloading mail the guy asked me if there was a problem.  "No, 
I'm just downloading mail." (I get about 200 letters a day and use two 
servers which were downloading simultaneously) He growled that they have a 10 
minute limit.  No one was waiting except George and we were obviously 
together so it was unnecessary harrasssment.  I ignored him because I was 
afraid of what I would say at this point.  I fiished downloading and had 
spent a total of 8 minutes online.  Sheesh!

At 4:00pm I had a list get together here at the trailer...so, at  3:00 George 
and I went on a search for Dick Kenan.  We had their number and their 
location...a row that didn't exist except on paper. We finally gave up sorry 
that he wouldn't be joining us.  At 3:55, much to my total amazement... Dick 
and his wife Jane (no Spot) came wandering in looking for me!!!  

The party was great fun.  Cindy and Carl, Dick and Jane, Kiki and Dick, Mike 
and George were all in attendance.  The food was good, the fellowship better. 
 The only listees not there were Rich and Dottie Walbridge as he thought 
playing golf was more important. )c:

Before dark we decided to do a trailer inspection.  First Dick and 
Janes...then Mikes.  

Finally it was dark ad late and we all went to our separate places and 
crashed.

Gawd I love this rally!
