There has been no news to report even thou we have been very busy getting ready to move.
Bruce has an infection from the operation and is still draining fluids in part of the wound. He has been put on antibi but has broken out in a very bad rash. Needless to say he tires very easily.
The pods for the house hold items will be here Tues and we plan to leave MAine on Wed the 23rd. Before we leave we are taking Amtrak from Portland to Boston for the day on Monday the 21th with the Knights.
Bruce did preach at a local church last Sunday, he was really honored.

We are expecting to finish our packing TODAY.
On Monday, we are taking Amtrak with some dear friends, the Knights to Boston. Looking forward to that adventure.
On Tuesday, we will begin packing the pods for delivery to Florida.
Bruce has prescheduled stops for hotels through Priceline and Expedia to get cheaper rates.
Have a few errands today. Need to take my coat and badge back to CMMC where I volunteered while I was here.

Good Morning one and ALL. It has been raining all night. Awoke and rain had washed some of the snow away. Bruce will be preaching at a local church tommorrow called Christ Temple. We met people from this church when we first arrived in Maine and how fitting for him to preach the next to the last Sunday here. Bruce has been plotting our drive to FLA and booking hotel rooms via priceline so we could get some good deals. Priceline really does work. Try it for yourself. Still trying to complete our packing. Each room seems to have an endless hole where more things seems to surface.

Had friends come over on Saturday and help us do some packing. Still have just a little more to do. Bruce did our taxes over the weekend. Unbelievable to know we will have to pay state taxes even though we only lived there 5 days.
Enough of the snow has melted we will be able to locate our shepherd's hooks and moose snowman.
My daughter turns 26 this Friday.

Things are happeniong to fast
This last week was super busy as we do more packing for the move to Dowling Park area plus a hospital vist to the Boston VA and to the Togus ME VA.
On Tues some dear friends, the Knights, drove us to the West Roxbury VA in Boston to have 40 staples out and one of the drainage tubes removed. On Friday we drove to the Togus VA in Augusta to get the last tube taken out. It feels great not to have to worry about them any more, gives me more freedom. I am still in a good deal of pain for the healing but it beats what it was before the operation. I am still on very limited work for another month or so but the doctor said we could drive to FL.
Our goal is to leave here mid afternoon on April 23, with the household goods reaching our new home on MAY 1. On the way down with the extra time we will stop to preach at a church on NC and may head to the Atlanta, Macon area if I am not to tired.
We do have a home to move to about 1.5 miles from Dowling Park, it is a double wide with a large screened in pool on 4 acres of land. We close on May 1 but it will be a few days before we can move in.
Janice's health is getting better after over 3 months with her bug. She has been the one doing most of the work for packing so I have a great deal to do to make it up that special lady.
Next Sunday I have been asked to preach at a local church which is a real honor.
Close for now, may the Lord bless you

April 2, Blog
We were blessed to be driven to Boston yesterday by Butch Knight to get Bruce's stitches out and one of his drainage tubes. He seems to be improving each day.
My goal for the week is to pack up each room so by SUnday , we only have 5 more rooms to go and then do cleaning. Seems pretty massive at this point but with GOd nothing is IMPOSSIBLE.
