I'm off to Tucson in the morning.  Sis says the temps are low-to-mid-80s for the week.  Aaaahhh!  And the hot tub is waiting.

Gotta finish my packing, go to bed early, and be ready for the shuttle bus to take me to the airport.  

My friendly good neighbor is going to check the apartment and take care of the cats.  

Got my reservation and boarding pass, and I'm set to go.

Sis has internet capability, but she hasn't figured out if a guest can use her puter, so you may not hear from me for a week.  

The Harry & David pears are exactly right for eating now.  I've put them in a heavy paper bag, and stored them in the bottom of the fridge.  I hope they don't get too over ripe to eat until I get back. What a waste that would be.  Waaahhh!!!!

Shalom, and happy eating
