THE EAGLE HAS LANDED!

GOOD MORNING TO ALL!
I can't believe it, but I am here! I arrived at about 12:30 pm yesterday, and Joe backed me into my spot I left in October, in their driveway, next to my plug-in post. This morning I decided to see if, by some miracle, I had any internet service out here, as I remembered they upgraded to cable this winter---and LO! I am sitting in my trailer with a hot cup of coffee, and I am online! Talk about a luxury site, this is it-----and the price is right!
Orion now weighs 25 pounds, and is the heaviest 7 month old baby I have ever hefted! He seems perfectly formed, but just solid, heavy muscle! He is so damn cute I can't get over it! And he seems to know me----perhaps because of the contact via Skype these past few months?? Anyway, he is one happy little (BIG) guy who will probably walk before he crawls, given his leg strength and size. I had to tear myself away form them all last evening after Joe cooked us a yummy steak outside, made tater tots in the oven, and I cooked some fresh corn I bought with Mandy when we went shopping. I was able to buy 4 6-packs of my beloved flavored seltzers at Price Chopper, and will indulge in some good cold beverages once again!
The dogs are both tied, as the road is very close, and Dinah is a roamer, hunter, runner, but they seem to be fine. They get slong great with the other two huge rotweiller/lab mixes that are the kids' pets. So far, all is good, and I am so relieved to be here!
The plan is that I am getting their current two-door refrigerator back at my house, an electric stove from Joe's sister, Elizabeth, (no workable stove back at that house since the 80s when it caught on fire and burned up) and the kids have bought a new refrigerator for this house here. No cost to me, which I am loving! The floor back there isn't too bad, Mandy says, as far as being puppy chewed by my two puppies from years ago, and there is virtually no smell any more, according to Joe who went to check on things the other day.
We will all stay here until Thursday, then head to my house for overnight so we can pick up Goog and Melissa at the Plattsburgh Airport on Friday morning. They will then go to visit their grandmother with Orion for the day, and return to my house on Friday night. Other than those plans, I know no more!
I hope all are having a good day doing some fun things. By the way, my trailer now has a name----EAGLE----just decided on that!
