Major Dilemma

After several years of sporadic postings to this blog, I have reached a major dilemma.  As of last week, we are no longer "two wanderers who have settled in the small west Texas town of Marathon".  We are again kind of wandering around towards South Carolina in anticipation of the birth of our first grand child.  So now for the dilemma - Do you try to change the name of the blog, add a sub-title or leave it as it is.  I guess with my great frequency of posting it probably doesn't make any difference and my few followers will know how to find me.


Anyway. . . .  We left Marathon in a huge rental  truck towing a trailer loaded with our mini van behind.  We stopped for the first night in the town of Big Spring, TX where we parked in the 'truck lot' of the motel.  During the night, the skies opened and a very infrequent desert rain turned the lot into a quagmire.  Big trucks and trailers don't like mud.  At all.  Not even a little.  With some major help, we got on the road again and two days later we're out of Texas and across Louisiana.  If you've never driven across LA, you don't know what you're missing.  I'm afraid to open the back of the truck and see how the load has rearranged itself.  Problem is how to open the door (rolls up) and jump out of the way at the same time.


Stay tuned, there might be quite a story.


Onward and eastward, the wanderers proceed!!

Well, how about keeping Marathon musings as in musing in a marathon fashion.
