Things went incredibly downhill Monday after I dropped off the rental rv and started the 22 hr drive home. I got a call that my husband Dan had been rushed to the hospital suffering a major heart attack. The drive home was awful with Drs calling me and making me get off at exits to talk to them and give my permission for things as Dan was in critical condition, sedated, and on a respirator. When I got to hospital he was in grave shape and had pnemonia in his lungs but as morning rolled around things began to go uphill. Dan started breathing on his own and we were able to remove him from the respirator, hours later out came the feeding tubes, buy dinner he was becoming alert (although no memory of monday and tuesday) and even ate some soft foods. He is still weak but has continued to improve and will be having open heart surgery on monday morning. Prayers have been answered and last night we were talking about our fulltiming. Before this he had 18 mos til retirement and now we may be moving up our "blast off date". Hoping to have him home in the next few weeks, please keep him in your prayers, Thanks so much KrisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309293625176086078.post-47595172646098122612014-02-18T21:06:40.737-05:002014-02-18T21:06:40.737-05:00Hat's off to Ed and Charlotte for making us al...Hat's off to Ed and Charlotte for making us all feel so at home and going out of their way to make it all come together. Of course Howard and Linda worked their butts off too. And thanks to their herd of cattle who vacated the pasture with the pond so we could all circle up the wagons and pig out. It was very thoughtful of them to roast a wild pig and not a side of beef! Great folks all.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10739352885582343624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309293625176086078.post-13563991878984647712014-02-15T21:55:43.140-05:002014-02-15T21:55:43.140-05:00How fun it all looks!

It's snowing AGAIN today - I think we got 15 inches but rain and warming yesterday have lessened that a bit. Your kayak and walks around the River look lovely - I can't wait for spring (even 50 degrees sounds amazing). SOO much food! Love the pancakes with the hearts. What fun - love the dog in the kayak!Carrienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309293625176086078.post-30746652481350727642014-02-15T10:28:16.871-05:002014-02-15T10:28:16.871-05:00Sometimes it's just good to eat un-vegan.

I love knowing people's stories and I loved hearing Chris's. Wish you'd be able to follow up so we'd know if she does find that perfect RV and gets her full time adventure started. If you hear Gina's story, pass it along. Do any of those solo women have blogs? I love following the adventures of solo women travelers. Maybe it's because I've done so much of that myself and admire those who have the courage to do so. Can't wait to see what is in store for the last day of the rally.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09408463925646609263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309293625176086078.post-73294501919444448932014-02-15T05:55:54.273-05:002014-02-15T05:55:54.273-05:00So glad to see all is well "Down On The Farm!...So glad to see all is well "Down On The Farm!!" ;o)) Can see we are missing some good times!!
