Guest guest Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Gwynne, Well we were going in a motor home, looked perfect nice and clean. It was just to small for to be comfortable for a 12 hour drive so we just took my car. We drove straight through to Laurel, Ms. then down to Gulfport and spent the night and came home the next day. We wanted to run around a little but we goofed and took Abby (4 lb. Chihuahua ) I just couldn't leave her in the car.Tooo many problem could come up. She is such a good little traveler. She is trained to a pad and when we got into the Hoteland put her pad down she was SOOOOO happy.. lol poor baby. She just wouldn't go where other dogs had been. Anyhow we just came home. I enjoyed just a different view. So our trip was a bit of a bust. I saw a Sony e-reader on line it was interesting sounding. Does the Kildle have a light of any kind? She reads a lot in bed.It will be a little while before I make up my mind. Thanks for the information. It is just so amazing to hear (read) how well you are doing. You sound so happy.I do pray God grants you 15 or so more years. Isn't Kerry something?..

Hi, you two.Peggy, have a great time on your trip. Be safe and beprepared to tell us all about it. Pictures please.My brother gave me an Amazon Kindle after transplantand I love it.

I love that you can enlarge the fontto whatever you prefer, so I don't need to wear myglasses to read. It isn't like reading on a computer,because it's just one brief page at a time. I actuallyread faster on the Kindle than I do with a paperback.The books I have downloaded were less expensiveor the same price as I would have paid for the paperback. I still read real books, too, but I love the Kindle.I'm sure would love one. I have used mine somuch in waiting rooms. It fits easily into mostpurses. Beth,I'm sorry about the diagnosis.
