Off to a Wedding

We are headed off for NY this morning. MamaC said she did not know if we would get any boxing done, but maybe some site seeing and pictures! Oh, and did I tell you I get to go to a wedding. I'm all shined up and ready. Woohoo!!!

We travelled to WV today. Stopped at the New River Gorge and got some pic. We travel on to NY tomorow. The trip is about twice as long as it would have been if we had gone straight there from MamaC's home.

Making new friends in North Carolina.

My Cousin Turtle arrived safe and sound.
She waited patiently in my mailbox until I left for work about 10:30pm. She was beginning to think she would be spending the night out there. I was thrilled to find her and took her on to work with me.
This morning she met the rest of the family — Big Mac, Caz, and Coco-Pugs the visiting BB who will be moving on to his next host at the Aug 18 Gathering in Raleigh, NC. Right now they are huddled together, doing exchanges, chatting, and making s'mores. Pugs is so glad to have someone else to share his love of s'mores with.
There is no telling what those two will get into today while I'm asleep. Kind of scary.

On Her Way Again

My Cousin Turtle has packed her bags and is off on her second mission, this time to MamaC92593 in North Carolina. The journey across the pond has taken longer recently. It seems to be since the car bomb in Glasgow airport. Obviously the heightened security must be affecting the checking of parcels, but for MCT it is just a question of stocking up on enough rations to last her. Now that she was a member of the Grateful Letterboxers Group she would just be grateful that they spent the time making sure everyone was safe.

North Carolina....Mmmm.....MCT had a feeling that the folks in NC tended to get up to a few tricks and general silliness there. She would have to keep her wits about her and not fall for anything too obvious, but oh it was going to be fun to join in with all the merriment she heard about on the AQ North Carolina Board.
