Met with my friend(Doris is 70 and very active) yesterday to have lunch and figured out that we will need another day on our trip to north carolina. So that makes that a 9 day trip. I will have to reschedule 4 more people into my full calendar. I am hoping that we can visit my nephew and his family in/by knoxville, TN. It is dew west of Raleigh and only about an hour out of our way. We would spend the night in town and perhaps just take them out to dinner. I already asked Nick if that would be possible, he will check with his wife, they usually plan trips with the kids on the weekends so this may or may not happen irregardless we will still have to come up with another hotel stay on the way back.
She and I are both excited about this trip. The bluegrass festival will be fun! and she gets to see her mom and family. It has been 3 years since she has seen her 90 year old mother. We will spend 3 whole days there. Kind of nervous about what I will do??? I am giving myself permission to spend the night in a hotel if I need to get away.  I have never spent more than 2 hours with Doris before. So this should be interesting. We are driving my car and she will take turns thankfully. I wanted to drive my car and not her big truck which gets poor gas mileage. My honda fit gets 35-40 mpg on the highway. I printed off directions to atlanta for the night, to raleigh for 2 nights, Tn one night, mississippi 4 nights then back home. Will also bring an atlas. I don't trust my GPS which we will use too. Sometimes it doesn't come on and I have to jiggle the wires. It is not that old!!!!! We will be leaving September 27th getting back home on October 5th. Jeffs birthday is the 27th....so I need to come up with something for him. He is going to go up to his friends for the weekend, so that will be fun for him. They have the same birthdays, and are really good friends. bizi..I started telling her about some of my idiosyncrasies...some how have to tell her about my avoidance of showers. Now that I have 2 more pairs of pants I feel better. Will bring a sweater and raincoat/wind breaker, it will be chilly in the evenings. Bela Fleck is playing, he is a really good banjo player!really looking forward to the festival...can't believe we are really going. sorry this is so long...thank you reading.  bizi

I saw Yonder Mountain String Band not long ago and they played something for everyone. Some amazing solos that did my rock and roll soul some good and some of the foot stompin bluegrass thrown in. When it is played really well, I like it.

I have decided to take a short trip while she stays with her mother and go to HOt springs AR and spend-1- 2 nights.
Looking at things to do. Of course there are the bath houses. Buck staff in particular has great reviews....very much like the old timey feeling. Not a fancy spa. There is a hike you can take, antique shops and an Illusionist that is really great to see from what my girl friend told me about. bizi

I am traveling with my 70 year old friend Doris.
We leave on wednesday..... Well the packing has ensued.  Got my toiletry bag done except for tooth brush and paste. Made piles of clothes on the bed. I bought gifts for my great niece and nephew. They are in gift bags. I have 6 tops that are the same make square neck and half sleeved and cotton and big enough to cover up my chubby body. I bought 3 new pairs of pants stretch jeans: black, blue jean and gray. I am wearing my travel pants that are comfy. Gased up the car. Should get my car washed tomorrow. Need to call Doris to see when she wants to leave on wednesday. That will be our longest section from here to atlanta for the night then on to raleigh NC for a blue grass festival on friday for 2 nights, knoxville TN for a night to visit my family...nephew, wife and children that I have never met before, going to take them out to dinner to texas road house Nick said the kids like the rolls and peanuts! I got them some toys and a harmonica. Then we go to mississippi to see her family. I did not feel like staying 4 days with her family so I am taking a side trip to hot springs arkansas for 2 nights. Yes I am doing the baths and yes I will be naked ..LOL...good thing I don't know any body. It is a national forest and am staying at this nice hotel called the waters a bit more money but I want to be able to walk to things, so it is worth it. There is hiking trails all over. going on a haunted ghost and vampire walking tour, it should be fun. then back to MS to head home the next day thursday. We will be gone 9 days total. whew! kind of sounds manic doesn't it????? Jeffs mother was at the hospital for shortness of breath and swallowing difficulties. They finally took a chest exray...we are not happy with the hospital. She was transfered to rehab yesterday and will have therapy all day there for weeks I believe... Which she is going to hate. They said she can't go home right now....I think she understands this. She has myethinius gravis sp? and they believe that is the cause for all of her symptoms. So maybe that is just an exacerbation of this auto immune disorder. Who knows how long this will last???? Jeff will go to see his mom the thursday the 5th thru sunday. He is trying to find a cheaper flight...they are about $1000 round trip. yikes!!!!!  That is what we spent when we went over seas!!!!! He is going to see if he can fly out of baton rouge to indianapolis, which is about an hour away...so doable. I will probably not have internet access. bizi

I like planning trips, I also like to have details worked out. I don't have details about the festival. Like parking Where it is exactly...I should maybe try to figure that out tonight.
I need to get a car wash and new wind shield wipers at auto zone. I need to call Doris today and see when she will be ready. Should really get to bed early tonight so I can get up early tomorrow. I hope Doris and I are still friends after this trip! lol The most time we have ever spent together was about 3 hours chatting in her kitchen.... and now we are going to spend 9 days together.Running out of time..... I see 5 clients today and then I am on vacation!!!! Have a great day yall! bizi
