It was so wonderful having him here for three weeks. But somebody needs to make some money and by unspoken unanimous vote he was selected. So he is off to PA/WV and not to happy about the situation there. The economy is playing havoc with his company and they want every minute of paid time accounted for, but there are so many extenuating circumstances that stop production at the drop of a hat. It's hurry up and wait and people have to be paid to wait, like it or not. It is a tense situation and I feel his frustration. But I'm too far away to comfort him. His sites are quite a distance apart, communication is lacking and working with the railroad is a test of endurance.
The good thing is on next Thursday I will see him in Fort Myers. Mom and I leave on Saturday. I do not know what we will do. I will go to the beach for sure. We will have a kitchen so we can cook and make sandwiches. We have bags of books from the Used Book Store. I have my Tangles, crosswords and sudoku puzzles. I guess I could bring my pole and go fishing. I hear trout are crazy for green gummy bears.
