I would seriously consider California. I hear...Jon,<br />I would seriously consider California. I hear San Diego is nice. Probably way too expensive. But I am going to check it out next year. I don't know, the older I get I'm reevaluating where I want to spend my twilight years. Do I want to be tiptoeing through ice, trying to avoid what I have right now and paying ever higher heating bills? Pat (my friend from Toronto and who accompanied me on my trip to California) is also considering a final move to California. By the way, consider all of us meeting next January in Los Angeles. I would like you as a tour guide to show us (me, Pat and even Tony and Nadege) what we're missing in L.A. Life isn't over yet Jon. I hope your immediate situation improves. This is a terrible winter. The best time I had this winter was the first two weeks in January when we were in L.A. Should have made that two months.<br />RonRonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11161930319264523497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660581276521005822.post-22408629050870618392015-02-22T13:20:28.902-06:002015-02-22T13:20:28.902-06:00And you're right - - California is looking bet...And you're right - - California is looking better and better.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619128793632680659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660581276521005822.post-43474338168601097862015-02-22T13:18:13.743-06:002015-02-22T13:18:13.743-06:00I need all the prayers I can get.

Believe it or not I'm sitting here on my bed power is out in this house. I cannot believe it. I'm talking in the my cell phone leaving this comment because I can't use my computer because the power is out. I'm telling you Los Angeles is looking better or at least California. Please, please, please be very careful. And again with the crawling I thought that's what I was going to have to do. This winter is a real bitch and a half. I'm waiting for the power to get it back on and I could do a decent comment right now I'm just talking in the microphone.

Along with whatever beer you have left for painkillers. If you have to write a message for someone in the snow make it yellow. If you catch my drift. I'm just saying it'll be easier to read. If you are online you should be able to contact Red Cross by email and get someone out to you asap. Coughing up blood is deadly serious, considering your fall. The Gods of Fate are not laughing. To them it's a perverted game and they are getting ready for Round Two. Be prepared. You are still in my prayers Jon. HANG TOUGH.

If you have a favorite market, order good stuff and have it delivered. Don't eat the cats --they've got to be tough and stringy. And remember, if you get helpless, the cats'll eat you. Really, I asked 2 of our barn cats and they said it's standard procedure. How ever you navigate this calamity, I look forward to your posts --keep doing that.
