Making the Best of It

Went to Mammoth Cave the other day.  It was something to do on a rainy day.  It was  a nice tour, but the highlight of our trip was the gift shop.  We found a miners hat for our grandchild Thomas.  He is 2 1/2 and is all about pirates, treasure and hats.  We also got him some shiny rocks to put in the treasure chest we sent him from the coast of Texas.  I'm sure he will use the hat with enthusiasm as he does with all things. 

Out part of Texas is burning.  Hopefully the fires are extinguished before they hit our neck of the woods.  We are keeping an eye on the news the best we can without internet or tv.  Thank goodness for the Droid phone we bought or we'd be totally in the dark. 

Unfortunately for me, I was working with elance on the internet putting in for writing jobs.  This will not happen now that I can't even get connected at the library except for 2 hours a week.  I know it has to be something to do with our browsers and apple computers, but alas, I am not a computer geek and have no earthly idea how to get connected.

Vic continues to work at Amazon.com and says it's a real sweat shop.  But we can do anything for 4 months - or can we?
