Some of you may remember Cindy's uncle Tom Hall - he stopped by the Quartzsite rally two years ago, then lost his wife Linda while driving back home to WA state.
Well, Tom's doing fine. He met Gail a couple of months ago, she also lost her husband last year, and they're planning to get married next spring.
In the meantime, Tom and Gail are in Yuma, fixing up Gail's winter house near the Foothills. It stood vacant for 4 years during her husband's illness, so they stayed in Tom's motorhome while they got the electricity and water re-connected, cleaned up the interior, etc.
Tom called yesterday and said he could really use some help painting the outside of the house, and by the way, there's more than enough room for both of our motorhomes in their driveway. And he'd really like to have an electrical connection or two for them. Oh yeah, the guest house out back is also available.
So we're having the Wiechert family Christmas party at our house this Sunday, then on Monday I'm heading south with the motorhome, stopping over in the San Francisco area to spend Thanksgiving with my Mom and the rest of my family. Cindy has a couple of commitments that will keep her here through the first week in December, then she's flying to New York City to visit her daughter and will meet up with us in Yuma on the 19th.
So we'll be in AZ this winter. Whoopee!
