GREETINGS from beautiful Bowling Green, KY! We are getting settled in here, and have already been working on getting the landscaping in shape before the park opens this weekend. There are still a few flower beds to plant and some mulch to put down, but it is beginning to look pretty good.

Well, the time for griping and complaining is over! Since the rebate checks are going in the mail this week, I bit the bullet and purchased a new laptop. I had been doing my research, checking out reviews and comparing brands, models, etc., so when the one I wanted went on sale last week, I was right there! Getting used to a new operating system (Vista) and some program formats has been a little challenging, but I am enjoying it. One of the big benefits is that I now have much better wi-fi reception!

For those of you interested in family updates....the latest buzz is that Zachary (6 yr. old) hit a home run at his baseball game this past Saturday, and earlier in the week he pulled his first two teeth (old fashioned way - string attached to a door knob)! Then there is Brandon who suffered a broken pinky toe Saturday when one of his friends accidentally ran over his foot with a Barbie jeep!

Now that I will be able to post some photos on the blog again, I need to get some downloaded from the camera. Check back later in the week!

Ooops! Not only did I forget to make mention last week of the fact that Jenn took her state boards for her RN license, but more importantly that she passed them and is now an official RN!! If you were in the vicinity of Shocco Springs Conference Center, you would have heard the scream when I got the call! Congrats to you, Nurse Jennifer!

We are now in Mt. Juliet, TN, parked next to my brother's church....our location until Monday the 14th, when we truck on up to Bowling Green, KY for the summer. I'd love to post some pictures, but our internet availability is limited and slow. Add to that, my computer is having SERIOUS issues....so I'm trying to baby it along for the next couple of months until we get those "economic stimulus" rebates. I know where MINE is going!!!!

Back to the pictures I'd like to post....we may be parked in a church parking lot, but I am still enjoying the wildlife. Yes, you heard right! This morning I watched a rabbit dodging a blue jay, and then I saw a turtle making its way across the parking lot. Wonder what tomorrow morning will hold?

Blessings to all.....
