Thanks, pilot and red. I have a feeling the woman is deceased, but I’m really not sure. I saw that the EMT’s and the husband were walking from the apartment to the rig, so if the Mrs. was on board, she must have been loaded earlier, and I don’t think they would have loaded and left her if she were still alive. I hope I’m wrong.
My only interaction with this couple was shortly after they moved in. They were both outside and introduced themselves as I passed. The woman said something about the neighbors bringing cookies to new tenants in their last complex, so I baked cookies and brought them down the next day. When I knocked, the husband opened the door about 4 inches and peered out. (There IS a peep hole.) I said I’d brought cookies, and he opened the door about a foot and reached out, which is when I realized He. Was. Nekkid. Um, maybe put on a robe or towel, or, or, or perhaps don’t answer the door?
Shortly after that, they put a polyresin turtle by their door…a creepy, standing-on-its-back-legs polyresin turtle with reflective glass eyes. Every dog in the complex growls at it. So they’re weird, but I still hope they’re both OK.
My son called because it’s Sunday. So excited that I get to see him and the puppers in 3 days! Waiting for his sister to call.
JtC, I’m SO glad your hubs got home safe and sound and that you had a lively homecoming celebration! I got misty-eyed reading about the GG-hubs reunion.
Blasphemy! I like you anyway, though. 
I love traveling on trains and am happy about MetalMouse’s trip. My last overnight trip was on the Empire Builder from Seattle to Chicago (and then onto the 2017 Women’s March in DC ivia plane. I met so many interesting people! The staff seats you at whatever table has empty seats and tells you to make friends, which I did. I didn’t find the recliners all that comfy, but I did sleep.
I was going to say, “Let me introduce you to Rawlins, Wyoming, the bleakest town this side of Siberia.” Then I remembered that Rawlins doesn’t have any nice hotels, so your theory stands. And if anyone knows hotels, it’d be you! (That doesn’t sound right. I mean because of your career.)
shoe, I loved the purple story! What a nice guy! I bet he would have wiped the mouth of the bottle on his sleeve first if you’d said yes.
Coppertone, sorry about the quiz. It’s good they let you retake it, though!
Hippie, I’m really impressed with that quilt! I’m really impressed with all your work, but I’m so ignorant in that line that I never know what to say except some variation of “Wow!”
No 'Murican cheese? Traitors! Of course, it’s a cheese product, but I wouldn’t think West Virginians would make that distinction, since most 'Muricans don’t. Next you’re going to tell me they don’t have any spray cheese.
Just FYI, you can’t talk on your cell phone in the passenger cars. You have to go to the lower deck near the luggage storage. I like that rule, though.
