Gotta love those rednecks! OK, so who is guilty out there??? Life is short; make fun of it!

And speaking of fun, the palm trees are SUPPOSED to be delivered today...stay tuned for proof...wait a minute...that involves WORK, not FUN. But........we are packing. Tomorrow we head to the Port of Miami to board the Carnival Valor, heading to the Eastern Caribbean. We have never been on this particular ship before, but Miss Bee sez this one is her fave. I can't wait to find out why. We are meeting Sherman and Pat, along with about 40 couples from a Good Sam camping club. Think we'll have fun? You bet!!! I have set up blogs for each day with at least one picture (almost impossible to upload pics while onboard), and I'll fill in more text as we go along. Come join us for a fun week!
