Carrying the Cool Cats South

One of my friends asked if we brought the cold weather with us.  Well we brought two cool cats named Pepper and Blanche and I guess the cool weather came along too.   It was 50 degrees here this morning, which seems colder than the same temp would in Virginia -- I don't know why.

We learned a couple of things about traveling with two cats.  First, they did much better when we let them out of their carrier in the car.  I did have to be mindful to keep them away from the driver's feet but they were much happier being loose.   Second, getting a good night's sleep with two kitties doesn't happen (We stay in pet-friendly motels).  We considered putting them in the bathroom but knew they'd yowl about that.  So, they got on and off the bed, ate, ran around and did some meowing.  Oh, well, one night didn't kill us.

Our house was clean and straight, thanks to the work of my sister-in-law, Kay Angelil.  She and George even put clean sheets on the bed for us!  What a wonderful welcome.

This week was busy with getting Comcast set up so we could have internet and TV.  Ed went through a lot of hassle with two trips to Comcast.  Finally, a technician came and got everything working properly.  Now Ed's happy with his beloved High Definition for his football games. 

We are making an effort to get involved in Savanna Club activities this year.  Ed went to the Fishing Club meeting and I went to the Garden Club this week.  We also attended a presentation by the "tappettes" last evening called "Autumn in New York".  It was very entertaining and SUCH a deal for only $5. 

Stay tuned for more adventures with the Angelils!
