TR,

It was such a pleasure meeting you in DC. You truly brought the California sunshine with you! We wish there had been more time to spend with everyone at the dinner that night, and especially hope for the opportunity to re-connect with you in the not-too-distant future.

Thus far, we have not been on the Cape in the early Fall, but know it is a wonderful time to be there. We escape the sweltering summer heat of the Deep South beaches with visions of summering on the Cape and wintering here in the Holy City of the South when we finally retire. We actually manage to circumvent the other summer tourists most of the time by having homecooked meals at our rental condo and then taking an after-dinner stroll. Many times, especially in rainy weather, our evenings are spent putting together 1000-piece jigsaw puzzles. We truly do "vacate" our minds and bodies from our normal work-a-day world. What amazingly blissful and rejuvenating relaxation for all who have the pleasure of spending time on the Cape, no matter the season!

As Peter, Paul & Mary sang many years ago: "I'm leaving on a jet plane" bright and early in the morning as I fly into vacation mode. By this time tomorrow, I will raise a frosted silver Mint Julep cup to toast Mr. Sun as he starts to slip away over the horizon just off the beautiful waters of Cape Cod at P-Town.

If any of you are watching the sun set over the same horizon tomorrow, please let us know as we have internet access at our rented condo. We would surely enjoy making your acquaintance in person!

Oooh, Mint Julep and Carol, have a wonderful time! In spirit, I shall watch the sun rise and set... how tranquil, the "moments"!! (In four months, I'll get MY dose of P-town "medicine"... YAY!) Now, may you BOTH find fun, healthy walks, interesting literature, relaxation and romance throughout your stay and heaven in each other's eyes... happy and safe travels, you two!!

Looking forward to "connecting" LIVE, once again, SOON,
Terri
