For those of you that cannot drive by a bad car accident without looking...

Well, maybe this is not a bad car accident, but I am guessing that if you are reading this, you don't have anything better to do...like keeping your eyes on the road ahead rather than this accident.  Anywho, I guess I am attempting to be somewhat informational, among other things, for our friends and family that we did not drag along with us.  An attempt at filling them in on what we are doing with our life after becoming unemployed (retired, sort of).  


Sidelight - I am feeling such tremendous pressure, as though someone might read this, to make it helpful in someway to share what the heck Miki and Wallie are doing.  Krissy, Wallie's cousin, created a wonderful blog to share her life as her family traveled to India for a time.  It was exciting to tune in for the latest and see what was up.  So Krissy...yes,I blame this pressure I'm feeling on you.


I've entitled this blog, describing the next step into what Miki and Wallie get themselves into after teaching, "Walliebloggin'".  Not to be confused with "farfrompooin' ",  an intestinal condition, I think.  Yet not as aggressive as "quitcherbitchin' ", which is what I told my students when they were whiney...but i digress.  It is the closest I will ever be to being Irish (besides Jim Brady, a school friend from where I retired, who is the closest human to a real Irishman I have ever met.).  I love the way the Irish sound as their words flow like Guiness filling a pint at a local pub.  With that said, you must think we are traveling to Ireland.  No.  We are on our way to Callie and Grace's high school graduation in Mt. Pleasant, SC (a blarney stone's throw from Charleston, SC...sorry, no more Irish-isms).  This is our second "real" trip with our 5th wheel (travel trailer) since we got it back in December (2010).  


With this rambling introduction now semi-complete, on to the latest for this trip beginning 5/28/11.  Never mind, I am too tired.  Starting a blog is tiring.  Will begin tomorrow from Huntsville, Alabama.  That's right, home of Space Camp for kids (and teachers).  Plus, why we are going to Huntsville...to see a "wild and crazy guy!"  Will leave you with a picture of our 19 year old kitty, Mulligan...in his traveling place (on the floorboard of the truck between me and Miki.
