Wife and MIL left at 0430 in my Tahoe for five day trip to BIL's in Va. MIL needs to do this. First trip to see grandkids in 15 years I have been in the picture... Wife had "reserved" a full sized rental at Hertz for the trip, but when we went to pick it up last night (9pm) there were Kias with high miles or Ford Ecoboosts only in the aisle they showed her to. It is a personal trip, BUT, Hertz screwed the pooch on this one. Wife manages global travel for a corporation that has already given them $5.7 million this year.... Service (awful, lazy, another subject altogether) and equipment sucked.
Getting daughter's updates as she is moved around the approaching hurricane with the airline.
I am going on first boat outing. Lunch on brother's picnic lobster boat. I have instx to bring ice cream for pie... WTF. Really? I am bringing a rod and couple dead macs for the mooring. (no, he doesn't have any onboard...) Bungees too. No rod holders.
But it will be good, as I am walking without a cane! Pick up first check in six months from a small job I got done this week... Been the longest summer of my life but I am finally turning a corner...
Be safe. Have a glass is half full weekend!
