Sorry for the lack of posting. Having one's hand splinted really makes typing mot a lot of fun. But the hand is progressing and half of the splinting has been removed now, with the other half due to come off in a week if things keep on the way that they are.
In other news--and another reason for my sparseness on-line...the dogs and I are relocating next month! It's officially official and we're off to the land of tourists and tow boats, tasty treats and tramps...New Orleans, LA.
I do love that city.
I'll be moving down next month, so posting may get a bit sporadic, but the dogs and I will still be on-line. And of course, once we're settled, anyone who was welcomed at the Lair before will still be welcome to the new abode down in the Crescent City.
Oh--and of course any friends with trucks are more than welcome to make a drive from WV to the land of the bars that never close.
We are going to miss you up this way. Enjoy the new place
ReplyDeleteGreat news! You'll be within driving distance of us, and Old NFO, and Lawdog and Phlegmmy - about 10-12 hours from N.O., the lower figure if you bypass the traffic nightmare of DFW.
ReplyDeleteThat'd be a drive well worth making.
DeleteMe with sad face even though I'm happy for you. I'll miss the dogs.
ReplyDeleteAnd they you. You'll have to come visit them often.
DeleteJust make sure wherever you find to live is above the high water line!
ReplyDeleteAre you taking the RC-172 with you, too?
...will you be changing your e-mail addy to: "martinihenryla@..."?
ReplyDeleteGlad things are working out for you.
ReplyDeleteMay have to plan a trip down Big Easy way in the future.
You plan it, and when you get down, the dogs and I will make it fun. Plus WW2 D-Day Museum!
DeleteThat Museum is on the To-Do list, glad you reminded me!
DeleteYou'll need several days to do the museum up right.
DeleteMMMMMM, grilled oysters at Acme, seafood bisque at Chartre House, bbq at The Joint, muffalettas at Verdi Mart....I love that town, too.
ReplyDeleteThe Joint is where I photo'd that bbq. A+ to all the others you mentioned as well.
DeleteAnd I forgot breakfast at Cake Cafe in the Marigny.
DeleteGood for you! NOLA as seedy and seamy as it can be is my favorite city. If you need to overnight on the trip down while outside of the Nashville TN area let me know and I'll get you squared away.
ReplyDeleteI know how much that city means to you and you won't miss crazy feral cat lady at all.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to you in the move.
If you really need help moving, call me. I kin make sum time....
ReplyDeleteCongrats!
ReplyDeleteI hope you continue to blog about Murphy and Belle....
How could I not blog about their French Quarter experiences?
DeleteCool! Best wishes with your move...I'd help but I'm in California. ;o)
DeleteYou will be missed, but congrats!
ReplyDeleteI won't be disappearing. I'll still be on the net and you can still visit any time.
DeleteCongratulations. I'm just some stranger from the internet but if you need something I'm right across the parish line and about 10 minutes from MSY.
ReplyDeleteGood to know indeed. We'll have to get together.
DeleteYou got plans for ferrying your Cessna?
ReplyDeleteSelling her where she is, sadly.
DeleteBut there will be another.
...so, maybe you'll be adding this to your stable down south: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vought_F4U_Corsair
DeleteWOW!
ReplyDeleteCongrats and safe travels!
gfa
Yea! Now how can I justify trips to NOLA? Oh wait, I'm retired... I just get in the car and go!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteHey Murphy;
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!!...Dang now everybody but me and Fargo is moving
good luck with the move. :D
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I don't recall you ever mentioning it, but there's some famously good fishing in the gulf waters around there for redfish, sea trout, lots of other species.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your new position and surroundings.
ReplyDeleteAre you keeping the Lair?
Be safe and be happy...what did we miss?
ReplyDeleteI live about an hour away from there. If you need something, let me know. My wife is always looking for an excuse to head to N.O., anyway!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations be safe during the move
ReplyDeleteSo, I move out of NOLA, THEN you move in!! Our dogs would've had such fun playing! They may have a little "climate shock!" Not much snow-romping down there. Best of luck in the move. I'm interested in knowing which area you chose to live.
