    I spoke with Flipper less than a week ago. He had been swamped at work and shoveling/scrapping snow. He will be back. He also wants to start planning his annual Aposta-fest for summer.

    He reminds me of a family member of mine who is now gone. I hope he is ok too. I like poopsiecakes calling him 'Flipperkins' !

    Wow . Sorry we have worried you folks so much ! Thanks for the concern ! Nice to know we're loved ! It has been crazy up here in the Sierra MTNS. Lost electricity from Friday morning- didn't come back till late Sunday night. Cooked meals on a wood stove , all telephone services out until Sunday night also. Including cell service. Now I 've gotta charge up my cell phone again ( which is a piece of crap Sprint cell phone by the way ). So if you've tried to call our apologies - we didn't realize it.

    I tried getting to a residential house cleaning job up in our area which I've attempted to get to for a couple weeks scheduling wise - the people left a check and are out of state right now. The snow plow guys hadn't even plowed the road - I was driving 4 wheel drive on top of snow in other people's tire track ruts just to get to the job . I got to within 75 yds. of the house near a turn and ran into 4 FEET of untouched snow for the whole 75 yds. ( not plowed or anything ) between my truck and the housecleaning job. So I had to turn all the way back , no pay, no cleaning- wasted trip. The people get back into town Friday so I'm getting ready to leave shortly to get the job done ( supposely ) if I can make it to their house ! It's been one hell of a week, believe me ! I look forward to contacting you folks who called and wrote me as soon as possible - but Mrs. Flipper and my life the last week or two has just been basically about something called - SURVIVAL.

    Thanks Josie for your concern and starting the thread ! Very kind of you. We miss you & your family as well ! I'll be starting a thread as On The Way Out said later in the week dealing with a July 4th apostafest at Tahoe again. Sorry for the delay in answering you Shirley on the PM - it's just been nuts out here with no time and storms ! LOL ! I think I have your number- may try calling you in a day or two if things can slow down a bit. Thanks everybody. Take care, love you all. Mrs. Flipper says Hi ! as well
