For those of you interested Only in TRAVEL, I (Jack) wrote the blog between MARCH 2010 and October 2010 during our travels west. We saw the most beautiful places and had the best time in our big truck and little trailer. See Blog Archive below.

Just a Shorty, Here!

I wish we could have been on Hunting Island, camping with our friends this past two weeks. I think of all the laughs I missed and the runs on the beach. Both Lizzie and Jack enjoyed HI with such wild abandon. I miss camping with this group so much. Glad they all had such a wonderful time. 

I got a call from one this morning, and it was fun to hear Patricia talk about her days with the group. She, and others, pulled me from the depths of dispair in the midst of the worst time of my life. I know I've mentioned that before, but it deserves another mention. They are wonderful women.

It's looking more and more like I'll never go, again. (Pity Party in Session) I feel sorry mostly for Jack. Look at the boring life he leads now compared with what could have been.


Stole a picture from one of their facebook pages--I know she won't mind. There's another one I'd like to have, but I can't remember who posted it and where it is. Lizzie and Reileigh, I know, were running with them in spirit.

We were together many times, but as you can see from this past post of mine, the pups had as great a time as we did every time we met. You'll have to scroll down to see what a playground a big puddle is for the pups. Now, Reileigh's Mom has Carly--quite the character. She's a Lab, of course. I suspect looking at this picture that they've already run themselves out--that's a morning walk.

  1. Ah, Nancy, sure wish things were different for you and Jack. Not that it's much help but sending you hugs and prayers anyway.

  2. OH I love Hunting Island and I refuse to believe you won't go again. I wonder if you need some second opinions?? There has to be something that doesn't meet the eye here.

  4. Jack is happy as long as you are there with him whether it be at home or at HI. But I am praying that you get to take him there again yourself. Hugs.

    1. Yes, he's a napper, all right. I'm not giving up hope, Jo. Just tough to keep the faith day after day. Saw a video this morning and tried to put it on the sidebar in my favorite videos, but Blogger is not cooperating. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=BUOQ_yPW_0s Thanks, as always for stopping by.
