Hey y'all!  Howdy from North Cackalacky!  I have loved checking the website (thanks to super geeks, Mike and Mark) all week.  It looks as though you are having a fabulous trip.  I miss you all so much and wish I could be with you!!  While you are in New York City, I'm hanging out with a bunch of BMW bikers in the rain here at Biltmore Estate.  Can I get a big "yee haw" for that?! 

For all you former Work Campers, next week I'm going up to ReCreation Experiences to visit one morning.  I live about 15 minutes from there.  And since I've been here, I find myself recognizing all kinds of places that we have been on work camp trips.  Like the Kmart I had to go to with Mark so that he wouldn't have to purchase special girl things and the Dairy Queen I wouldn't let him stop at to get ice cream on the way back (I was thinking of y'all...I didn't think it would be fair!) and the hospital where we took Laura to get stitches and the Urgent Care where we took Grant to get a tetanus shot after he went behind the shed to pee and stepped on a nail....ahhhh memories!  I could go on and on!

 Now for some important questions....

Did you get to keep the straight jacket for Andy?  I'm thinking that could come in handy!

How annoying was Mark when you toured Fenway?  Did he force you to go or did you really want to?

How many romances have broken out since choir tour began?

Has Mark threatened anyone at "lights out" with "don't make me bring Joy down here"?  I'm just wondering if it still works!

And most importantly.....while in NYC, did you visit Heaven on Earth, also know as Tiffany's and what did you buy me?!  I'll be looking for a little blue box in the mail!

Must be going now....love to all and a special hug to Cowgirl Katie!  Have a safe trip home!

Love,

joy
