What a day! We talked to just about everyone, caught up on what was going on around the world. Fabulous! During the middle of the day we packed up our whole room, that we packed last night, and moved. We ended up in our old room again, where we stay year after year. But moving is a pain!

Thank you so much for that report, Gail! You even managed to capture that mysterious "Jordi" ... while we still have no serious footage of the Yeti ;-)

Okay Tobi, upon waking and coming to the computer and connecting here, you have made me laugh out loud over the Yeti/Jordi connection.
Thanks for that!
