I'm on my way

I'm excited about the adventure ahead of me.  I have never been on my own for this length of time in 43 years.  The Cottage Master takes such good care of me, reminding me of important dates and times and items that need taking or doing.  I'm not sure my brain can still do all those things for myself.  We'll see.

I'm confident about leaving our home with the Cottage Master in charge. I know he'll take good care of everything.

My Christmas cactus that blooms every Thanksgiving and Easter -- never at Christmas.

 The first fuchsia I managed to keep alive over the winter -- after many tries.

 A pack of flower seeds that I expected to see popping their little heads up by now.

And our sweet kitty are all under the Cottage Master's capable care.

I plan to arrive in Chicago at 5:00 pm their time, pick up a car and drive for 5 hours to Charles City Iowa.  Hopefully that will have happened the next time I'm here.

Kisses
