We made it in Saturday around 1000 hrs. I booted J out of the truck as soon as we pulled into the OC and he busted ass home to get the mail. We have the mail held at the post office while we are gone and we had a camera that was sent to us that we REALLY wanted to pick up. Well, because it was Saturday, they closed at 1100 hrs so he had to hurry to get there, but he made it just in time.
This is the story. About a month ago, one of the members of pumpkindriver.com posted some pictures he had taken. I had also posted asking him what kind of camera he was using because the pictures were amazing. J and I were wanting to get a really good camera for a late Christmas present. So I got a PM (private message) on there from one of the other members offering to send us a camera he had that he wasn't using anymore. A Nikon Coolpix 5400. I was blown away from such a genuine offer. He reads my blog (you know who you are :) ) and hopefully I have been some help to him in making his decision to drive. So I want you to know, that we did get the camera and I am still trying to figure it all out. I have taken a few pictures and when we get them loaded, I will post them. And I will promise to take pictures while we are out on the road so that my readers can see what we are seeing. Because I am no writer and I know the pictures will do more justice to the scenery than my attempts at describing them to you.
So we will be home for a few days and I am really hoping that we will get to the Volvo dealership. Tomorrow we have to take the truck in and drop it off for a PM (preventive maintenance - oil change and stuff) and then we will go by the Volvo dealership. I have been wanting to do that the last two times we have been off and we haven't done it. So I am going to make sure we make it by there tomorrow. It is getting really close to the time where we are going to get our own truck, so we need to make sure we have looked at all of our options.
Until next time.....

You say you aren't a writer, but, I'll say, you do a pretty good job on this blog. I am a newbie, awaiting for some personal stuff at home to resolve, then I am jumping in with STA.
I check your blog everyday for updates.
I hope you and "J" have some good home time, and I look forward to seeing those pics.
Heffard, thank you. Sometimes I feel like I am just rambling on here! LOL!! But I guess that is what a blog is for, right? Just my little online diary of sorts of what is going on with us. Sometimes it is boring when nothing goes on and other times it is maybe a little interesting. :)
