1. I'm doing well. How are you?
It's about 3:20 in the morning where I'm at. I've been up all night and I'll be up until about noon. Then I'll get some sleep and head into work at about 9pm.

I've got a new Stories From the Road thread up on the front page of the lounge if you are interested.

It's been a while since I've seen you on here. Where have you been hiding out?

2. Hey Droopy
I will check out your thread right away.

I was around the whole time. But till the election I was reading more in GDP than anywhere else.

Do you have a night shift again? I thought you got a route?

:hug:

4. Yes I do have a route
But it runs from 10pm to 7am and my work week starts at 10pm on Monday nights. So I'm just hanging out right now and keeping to my sleep schedule which is very important to us truckers.

54. Oh, they send me all over place alright!
I think the only European countries I haven't been to yet are Albania, Bulgaria, Liechtenstein and San Marino.
Well, I guess now that Czechoslovakia, the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia have split up into fractions, a few
others, but you get the idea.

Sure, we should meet up some day--do you spend a lot of time in airports? LOL!!

I was not raised to be a Gladiator, and therefore do not enjoy driving in Germany.

11. I am just about to turn in, MissHoneychurch. But I saw this thread, and....
...finally worked up the nerve to say that you have
one of the best DU Usernames EVER.

I like your posts, and I LOVE your DU name.
It's a beautiful web-handle; almost as beautiful as
you are in real life.

And now that I've got that off my chest,
I'm gonna log off and crash. :hi:

16. Good morning Dave
where did you hike?

I still remember the time I was visitng the Okefenokee Swamp. Not that I was hiking there but it was a great experience to see the swamp.

I was in Berlin over a long weekend. It was nice as always. Even though I didn't do much this time. Visited family and did stuff with my brother.

:loveya: :hug: :hi:

19. I was down in the "Green Swamp" here in Florida
It's a huge wildlife management area in central Florida out in the middle of nowhere with an even more secluded campsite. On Saturday part of the group and I hiked over 12 miles. On Friday night we got to see the space shuttle launch real clear. Even with the bright moon it was easier to see without all the ambient lights from the city like we have here.

Edited on Mon Nov-17-08 09:44 AM by DaveTheWave
...when I woke up Sunday morning in my tent it was freezing. I wanted to get up early for the three hour ride home but when I felt how cold it was I zipped up my nice warm sleeping bag all the way and slept two more hours until the sun was out and it got a little warmer.

17. Morning MissH!
Nice to see you. How's the packing going? Have you done any purging yet?

I still have boxes in my garage from my move in March.

How are you doing?

20. Tied. Spent a couple
of days in DC. All work and no play, but my trip was a success, so all's good.

Oh, and my computer is in the shop, so I'm on here at work. :evilgrin:

No packing her? Hmmmm . . . but you're right, you do have time.

How exciting though - your move. You're going to love having you own place.

I just adore my new place, even though I've been in it for about 8 months now. Threw a couple of logs in the fireplace yesterday afternoon, and read. Very relaxing.

:hug:

22. I can't wait to move
I want to be in my new place already!!!

I sorted out some clothes already I won't take with me. But that was only the beginning, not done yet. I am going to let a company do my move. That way no one in my family has to break his back to carry my stuff.

I was in our capital this weekend too. But for pleasure ... no business.

You have to come to Germany and visit me in my new place :D

25. That would be awesome
to visit you! I haven't been in Germany in a very long time. Don't think that a trip like that will happen soon though.

Once you're settled into your new place, you'll have to post some more pictures. I know that you'll have a lot of fun personalizing the place.

Gotta get some work done, so wishing you a great day.

60. Well, here's the deal...
Youngest daughter's boyfriend always has this HUGE Thanksgiving dinner for about 25-30 relatives. We are invited to come over for dessert. Last year I made a pecan pie, and a pumpkin pie (I think?) Will definitely make the pecan pie again that was to die for -- I will have to check with M. and see how many pumpkin pies are being brought over. Maybe I will make another kind of pie? :D

I just love baking so, to me it is no chore.
