Buckle Up . . . Buttercup

Driving solo was no fun.
Not Any
None

It is over.
Tony was released by his surgeon today.
He has to pass a simple skills test that involves such difficult tasks as
entering and exiting the cab
entering and exiting the trailer
pulling the damn fifth wheel release without falling down

I am assuming he will pass this tomorrow and we will be set.

In the meantime, we are nesting in our new place in Joplin.
If you listen, you should hear
the sound of twigs being arranged
feathers being fluffed
treasures being found and placed carefully.

We are getting back on the truck on Monday.
