Still in London

Donna in her room

That is right I am still here in rainy, windy, cold London. I lied it was sunny ......for about an hour! This is starting to remind me of the Northwest.

We took the bus (#19) to Harrods where we purchased two lead crystal wine glasses for Donna's room. They are much nicer than the coffee cups to drink our Spanish Red Mesa Wine out of. You take take the #14 back and it will drop you off right in front of Donna's place.

Living large in London

Hello All,

Guess where I am now. You probably guessed it by the title. That's right, jolly ol' England!

I am over visiting Donna at her place of blogging. We are having a great time, but not what I would call wild and crazy. We have seen a movie, Slum Dog Millionaire, gone food shopping, listened to a guy in drag singing in a pub, had a beer in a pub, borrowed a bed and table, had bread, cheese and box wine for dinner, and have been having to sneak into Donna's room. Yep, more to come. By the way Donna may get deported for breaking so many rules! These Brit's should have known to do a complete FBI, CIA, NSA , TSA, and Interpol background check on her. They never checked with me! I chould have filled them in!

Donna is Skyping with Kate as I type. We are pretending we don't know each other when in the building that she lives in. We don't want any one to know we are a couple. Then they might check her room and find the bed and table. Oh, and the pillow.

I bought a brand new watch today.Four puonds 87 p.It is really cool. I will post a photo of it. Now Donna is telling Kate how we need to borrow some silverware.

Donna's TV is so cool! Every thing is doubled on the screen. When you watch soccer you have twice the number of players, but they are playing with two balls!! Double the excitement!!

Well, I better go. We are about to go up and sneek me into her room. Hope we don't get caught!!

Boston Layover

Yes, you all can thank me for keeping my postings short and to the point. I just read Donna's last posting. Good God! Is the woman writing a book!

Today I am in Boston. It is a lovely day outside. At this time it is 16 degrees, cloudy and to make it absolutely perfect the wind is blowing about 20 mph off the bay. I am about to go to Dunkin Donuts for my breakfast, a Boston Cream and a medium coffee. Some times I go out to the edge of living large and have cream with my coffee, but I feel like a black today!

Lucky for me my flight is running about 2 hours late, so that gives me time to get back over to Dunkin Donuts for lunch.

I sure hope all of you following my blog are finding it as exciting and interesting as I do! I now have a camera, so I hope to be posting some really cool photos. Later!!

My Oh My!!

Looks like Donna may start having as much fun as I am having. She now has a TV. I hear it sort of gets four stations. I get about a million, but only watch about four. Well I will be over checking up on her soon.

Adious

Things got just a little too crazy last night. I am in Boston. Last night I was up until midnight watching Oklahoma and Flordia State play for the college title and reading. Waaayyyy past my bed time. OK I know that is only 9pm Portland time but it seemed really late. Did I mention that I had a small bag of chips and a diet root beer while watching the game. I know what you're thinking,"This guy is out of control!!!"

There is no way my wife could be having this much fun in London. She dosen't even have a TV.

Well I better sign off. I feel the stationary bike calling my name!

Wow! The cats have been out playing. Just got back from Vancouver BC with my daughter. We got lost, stuck in the snow and ended up with really wet feet. The high point was the hot fudge shake on the way north and the hazelnut shake coming back south.

On our drive we saw 10 eagles, three deer, one dead barn owl (now missing a wing), a huge flock of trumpeter swans, and hawks to many to count. Hope all of you enjoyed watching TV this weekend.

We are giving some serious thought to playing scrabble later. Yes and we may have a cup of tea while we play. Later

Things are crazy around here!!

Yes things got wild around here last night after Donna left for London. Yea, we ate pizza and watched the Rose Bowl. OK now hold on to your head......later we played Scrabble. Madeline won and I was a very close second with her boy friend from Arkansas coming in a distant last. I think I was asleep by nine. Had to get up at four for work and get the boyfriend, Nate, to the airport.

Things are about to get wild again. You probably guessed it. We are about to take down the Christmas tree. Then who knows what! Maybe go out to Gustav's for dinner/happy hour. My fingers are starting to cramp up from all this typing. Gotta go.
