We are now in VA. Saw the Flight 93 memorial at Shanksville PA  and also Gettysburg Battle site. Both sobering  and sad. Then a harrowing trip through and around the beltway in Wash.DC. Called an old friend, George Reel, in Portsmouth and learned that he is almost bed ridden after back surgey. Will have to forego the chance to see him at this time but promised to start using g-mail more. Almost 50 years has passed since we last saw each other. Hope to see cousin Mike and wife Sonia on the way home......

We will be going through Canada and understand phone rates are much higher there. Dr. Bob suggested a blog might be the way to keep in touch with relatives and friends. I hope it is eaiser than Facebook for a couple of oldsters like us. Nothing is set in stone for a departure or return date at this time. We will be in the testing mode for now....
