I know, I skipped a post.
And I may skip a few more, because I'm sick. After all my prevention methods and running away from sick people, I now have the runny nose, running fever, deep cough, chest-hurting version of the flu. I've been to the doctor and I'm taking meds. I can barely stay awake, so I must take a break and rest. And yes, I'm staying out of the public, so...you're safe. From me, anyhow.
Covered Bridge Road near New Wilmington, Pennsylvania. (I was so close to Tami of Pennsylvania Wild Woman but we were unsuccessful in meeting! Oh, well, I'll be back!)
The Elephant and Castle Pub at Grove City, Pennsylvania...and a subsequent bar shot.
Jerry, a fly fisherman from Clarion, PA, showing his cast, on the Neshannock River. I just started taking pictures, and we visited a while. He didn't seem to mind that I was taking pictures, and I promised to send them to him. For you fly fishing enthusiasts, he has a fly fishing blog named Streamside Tales!
We're heading home now, awaiting our Southwest flight at Chicago Midway. Y'all have a great day!
We have an engagement this evening, so I'm writing this post a little early (or late, depending on when you read!).
I'm going to open this one up to you...
Ask any question you want* about me** (keep them relatively clean, please) and I'll answer it. I promise. So have fun!
For now, I'm going to dry my hair, get dressed, and we're hitting the streets of Cranberry, PA!
* excluding contest question
**added later because Bare-Eyed Sun asked "what numerical expression using only three instances of the numeral "4" yields "55"? and immediately made me a liar...'coz that's one I can't answer...immediately, anyway!
After leaving the house at 5:30 a.m., ThatManILove and I finally in Pennsylvania after a full day of flying.

You probably know that there were lives lost today at Fort Hood. If you're in close proximity to Texas, click on the link to see how we can all help.
Our prayers go out to those wounded, as well as to the families and friends of those who are grieving for their lost ones. May the Lord, God of ALL comfort, pour over them all during this time.
God bless you all.
My neighbor, Jeanine, returned home from the emergency room at midnight Tuesday night. All her vital signs had stabilized, and the E.R. had her return to her normal doctor Wednesday.
Her doctor has done a total body scan, MRI, blood work, EKG, the entire drill. They can find nothing, but this doctor isn't stopping until she finds out what's going on, which I think is cool! Our neighbor is fit as a fiddle, or has been until this happened. Doctor put her on a monitor to see if she'll have another episode (she's been having them every three days or so, and then Tuesday night was her second in two days). Like Bob said on my comments yesterday, the doctor's even checking to see if it's an inner ear problem, or what. What's really worrying everyone is the dizziness, headache following, and also, a form of sweating and clamminess immediately after each episode.
Thanks for your prayers, and please continue. I'll keep you updated. Jeanine's a sweetie, and we wanna keep her around for a while!
Tonight we came home from an election party to find an ambulance parked in front of our house.
People, let me tell you, that’s more than a little unsettling. (And even more so, one night last week, I dreamt that there was an ambulance in front of our house. Now that’s weird.) Turned out, it was our sweet neighbor, who had experienced several dizzy spells. She’s the epitome of health, and a real go-getter, so I’m sure this is no big deal. They’re at the hospital now.
So, instead of my usual story, picture, or contest, I’m going to ask you something...
Will you please pray for my neighbor and her family? I'd sure appreciate it.
