jazzcat, I posted a thread about it before, guess you missed it.. Yes, Mike and Rie will be checking in on them and I have it set up at the vets if they need medical care while I am gone or Giz need more of her medicine and I take care of the bill when I get home. I do NOT think they will miss me and they will be glad they are at home with their OWN toys, beds, feeders and stuff. Best of all NO CAR RIDE to stress them out. I have been making changes the whole time I have been home and tweaked what needed tweaking and Mike made me promise that I will not worry about them... (YEA! RIGHT!.... the first time out I am sure I will be worrying myself to death!)

Yes, it is time to go back. Looks like I will have to drive to Helena, Arkansas or somewhere in that area. My Captain is already on the boat so I will have a deckhand to pick up for most of the trip.. I have started gathering all my "boat" stuff and will start packing tonight. Got a real busy, full day tomorrow..
