Our Diary |
| Sun June 6 (Crushers) |
I have been planning this thing for two months.
I have my wiggly hula girl pasted to my dashboard to keep me company, got the oil
changed and my tires fixed (several times). I have been sending out letters and
notes in hopes to bring some of the Shriners that may not "know" about the
party. I've got a box full of things I can't live without, and an envelope full of
"Dear John" letters. I am ready for another adventure. The day has come and so has Mother Nature and all her fury, I have agreed to only drive during the day since we just discovered that my tail lights and dash board lights don't work. Mother Nature was reminding me that she could make what started out to be a beautiful sunny day, a pitch black blinding stomping and storming rage. "I'll wait her out" I thought as the first hour passed...."It can't storm all day" Into the second hour the Burhead here, and god of my edge of the world, stressed as he could be, and knowing how important this was to me, threw all my belongings (and there was a little Festiva full) into the back of his trusty Subaru. The man drove me the 3 hours to Crusher's house, made sure that Crusher wasn't a raving lunatic and turned around and drove home. Ah, it was beginning.....I met Crushers son Eddie who had just graduated High School that afternoon and made myself comfortable at the kitchen table and Crusher and I talked....and talked ...we stayed up half the night talking Prine with Crusher |
