    Back in the 70s, I was almost in that crowd. I had bought 5 acres in the Roseburg area and by the early 80s was ready to move. But the economy in Oregon went to crap so I stayed put in NorCal. Had many friends that made the trip and I noticed that they and other Cali transplants were the most vocal about stopping others from following their lead. I remember the signs "Don't Californicate Our State" in southern Oregon.

    C'mon Dave you could have been the ghost truck blowing past scales at 110 mph. The numbers were all a blur.

    Keri called me a few minutes ago. Then we face-timed. She said when they got on the ground last night she was dead on her feet tired. Got all her paperwork done and submitted and checked into the hotel and went to sleep without eating. Later this afternoon she is headed back to London. Then will return to Charlotte on flight 731 on Monday. This girl taking care of me is a fantastic cook. She made me an omelet (fake eggs again yuck) and I had some wheat toast and had a banana. I passed on the fake coffee and just drank some apple juice. I have an appointment on the 14th with my VA heart doc, Keri made it clear she was taking me. One thing we are doing (with sadness on my part) is filling out VA Form 10-0137 and VA form 10-5345 and submitting both. When the legal paperwork gets through on the adoption I can rest better knowing Keri will be secure. Keri reminded me that she already has a bit under 15 years of service with American. She plans to work another 8 or so and either retire or find a local job that lets her be home every night.

    I did get a chance yesterday to have a zoom meeting with one of my Attorneys and he said everything was going OK with the adoption. He did say some of the people in the office are laughing, but they understand why I have to do this. To put this into perspective! One of my sisters will not speak to me now. I tried to make contact several days ago to ask about an issue in my hometown and she just hung up on me. The most dangerous place I know of is the space between her and a dollar bill! My new will MUST be ironclad! It also makes handling medical decisions easier once she is legally my daughter!

    Well.
    My bank got bought out by a Mega...Bank
    So all the checks I have, about 750ish desk checks, will be null and void after the 18 of this month, so you can BUY more checks.

    Have to change ALL your autopay bills to the a NEW name bank, your Debit card, which is ONE month old wii become null and void, and we’ll send you another for only $10.
    $9.95 actually.
    But Wait!
    Since we’re acting now, your current banking app will not working after the 18th either.

    Oh!
    And if you deposit or withdraw more than $10,000 in a month, we’re going to charge you 5% for every $1000 over the 10k, so that’s what $50 we’re going to steal from you, for you using out bank, to lend your money out on, to “charge” for services.
