When my father died and my two brothers and I sat down to talk about him, we discovered that we were talking about three different men - and I had never met the other two.

Crazy gas prices. Now there is a gas war on. Some gas bars are offering discounts of up to 10 cents/liter. I don't know why but the price on the sign out front seems never to be the price at the pump. Shell started that and its driving me nuts. Why not just advertise the price on the pumps? Sheesh.
With regards to Mom travelling, Gary wrote:
* It was actually Mom's idea that she come out to Victoria, if Jack and family visit. On one hand she says she is too old to travel, then she talks about coming out. Yes she is 86 and has problems, but I think she can still travel. Many older than her, with more problems do it all the time. However, it is her decision.*
I don't know of any people older than her that still travel. Who are these people? I'd like to armwrestle them! One thing for sure...don't suggest that she travel with me if you are not willing to travel with her yourself. You got a spare room in your new RV??? HEE HEE
Speaking of new RV. What kind did you get Gary? Does it have pull-outs? Is it a pusher or a puller? It must have cost a lot of dough! It seems paradoxical...for someone like Gary who always preferred the small economical cars (inspired me to get a Volkswagon!) and now to be buying huge houses on wheels? I stand in awe.
Well, better be going. I am taking Janine and her son & grandson to the Air Museum. Its spring Break! Tons o'kids everywhere. And the Museum is very busy! Once the Wright Bros. show leaves it will be back to normal, well almost normal...there will still be school tours. There are more school tours towards the end of the school year than at any other time. Looking for ward to doing more tour guiding. TATA
