Default Two more Frogs a comin'

My wife, Teri and I are beginning our new adventure at this very moment. The movers are at present loading up our U-Haul. We will leave Omaha, NE. our home for 40+ years and head to our home in Rio Ranchero. Tonight we will stop near Kansas City to visit her sister and other relatives. We will head out bright and early Sunday morning to continue on our greatest adventure ever, that of becoming frogs in TV.

We are meeting the GO2GUYS at our new place @ 2:00 on the 30th. In the meantime we are committed to making what could be a somewhat arduous trip fun and relaxing. Teri and I travel exceedingly well together so we are looking forward to 24 hours, or such, of windshield time over the next few days. The GO2GUYS will unload us and our froggie experience will begin in earnest.

While our availability on the TOTV will be somewhat limited, we will attempt to visit it from time to time.

I am looking forward to meeting many of you at the next Crispers gathering.

Take care to all and soon many of us will be neighbors. The rest will remain TOTV friends.

Gee -- before moving to TV,
a FROG meant a man who wore socks with sandles
(among other things)!

Welcome aboard. I married a cornhusker from Omaha and know the trip you're taking very well.

We two frogs decided to tough-it-out and made it to TV about 6:30 this evening. We will be staying at a friend's house tonight and are looking forward to moving into our own home tomorrow afternoon. We are looking forward to becoming involved in the fantasy lifestyle of which so many on here have spoken. We are realists and acknowledge that it will take some time to "let go" of our prior lives and incorporate those experiences effectively into what lies ahead. I have become a fairly frequent reader of TOTV and looking forward to meeting many of you.
