Wednesday night we went over to Stormy's house and had dinner with everyone.  Terri has to work tomorrow so we won't be able to see her then.  We will really miss everyone when we leave on Friday.

We had some excitement on Thursday.  I started doing laundry in the morning.  I stayed in the laundry room while Bill came back and forth with additional loads and stuff.  When we finished we went back to the rig.  Bill saw the guy in the rig, two spots down from us, and it looked like he was asleep in his chair. His german shepard was sitting there with him.  Later I heard the dog barking and then heard sirens.  They sounded awfully close so I looked out the window.  There were a bunch of MP's and base cops and they had surrounded his rig with crime scene tape!  They transported the guy to the hospital but they said it didn't look good.  They think he had a heart attack or something.  Apparently he  had been sitting there for awhile and it was hot outside.  Now there had been a rig between ours and his but it left early that morning, so we didn't know much about the guy.  In fact, we didn't even realize he had is wife and granddaughter with him.  Anyway, the cops took Bill's statement and all his info.  Later his wife and granddaughter showed up and they locked up the rig and left.  That was our excitement for the day.  The rest of the time was spent getting everything ready to leave tomorrow.

Later in the evening we went over to Stormy's to say goodbye again.  We leave tomorrow.  Once we move to Ohio it will be easier to come see them.  Who knows, we might even be able to spend a holiday together.

That is all for now.  Bye
