Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2007On the road again
Thursday (March 1), we will say good-bye to our grandbaby and his parents and load Cinder and Rosie in a rented car to start our trip back to our boat. The people who purchased our furniture are taking the stuff away today, so our apartment is almost empty. The cat tree is still up, though. Cinder is in the bedroom closet and Rosie is on top of the cabinet over the toilet in the bathroom. To top it off, we'll give them the dreaded Revolution dose to be sure that they don't pick up any parasites from the motel rooms. I'm sure they could use some calming purrs. We also are apprehensive because of the weather and hope we can avoid most if not all the snow and ice. We will stick to major highways, which should help a lot. We are thinking of taking I-90 out of Washington state to Buffalo, Wyoming. Then I-25 to Cheyenne. Then I-80 to Elm Creek, Neb. Then Hwy 183 to Ellis, Kansas. Then Hwy 70 to vicinity of Salina. Then I-135 to Wichita. Then south on Hwy 35 to San Antonio, TX and I-37 to Corpus Christi. We think it will take us about a week to get that far. We will stay a few days in Corpus to take care of things. Then, we will head east, the ultimate destination Myrtle Beach, S.C., where we will move back onto the boat and resume our journey on the water.

I'm looking forward to the Cruising Cats updates. > Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. Thanks, Marina. With the current winter weather, we'll appreciate all the safe journey purrs. Regular updates will resume near the end of April. We will be working on the boat most of that month and also will attend a gathering of other boaters taking the same journey before we get under way again. Annie Annie, wow, it's that time already? Good luck to you! I hope the four of you have an easy journey. Do the girls have little sailor hats this time? Have fun!

Do the girls have little sailor hats this time? > Have fun! > Rhonda The captains consider sailor hats beneath them, but now, thanks to your suggestion, want captains' hats, instead, as places to curl up and take catnaps.

Would you like to stop in Austin for a cup of coffee or something? :) SignatureVictor M.

Martinez We are planning to spend a night in Austin with a friend. We'd love to meet you if we can arrange it. If things go as planned, with no weather delays, we expect to arrive in Austin the afternoon or evening of Monday, March 5, and will leave the next morning. I'll email you with my cell number.

He remembers the boat and meeting you, but doesn't remember when. Sigh. At least we've been two days without a siezure, so far. He's doped to the gills, of course, but the longer we can go without a siezure, the better. Just sent an email to Senator Dole and hope that she can and will help us out. I'd already contacted Congresscritter Hayes a couple of years ago, and am still going it alone. Hope Libby is better on her toes. Sending good trip thoughts and purrs. Have more nip snakes for the girls. am making more nip snakes when I think of it and get around to it. Good luck on the trip and please keep us informed on how it all goes. Temps in the 50's and 60's here, should be reasonable by the time you get here Hug Jim and the girls for me please. Pam S. > Woo Hoo!

Pam, It's good to hear that Rob is doing better. I think you'll continue to see improvement as his body adjusts to the trauma from the surgery. We are honored to have been able to give you and Rob a break and Rob a chance to talk helicopters with Jim. The cats still enjoy the nip snakes you make them. I took the liberty of drawing on eyes on the snakes with a permanent marker. We probably will be in Myrtle Beach until the last week in April. We will have some maintenance work to do on the boat from having left it for so long. Also, we are going (by rental car) to Charleston for about a week for a rendezvous with other Loopers. After that, we will head up the coast. We have a long way to go at 7.5 miles an hour. Annie Many calming purrs for the furries.
