(It was probably ten years ago, and I'm just having age-related time compression!
I want my move to be super easy. That's insane for March in New Jersey! It's rare enough that I can do it in the summer. We had incredibly nice weather for March this week - the one rainstorm happened overnight and it was dry again the next morning. 
That post was Feb 15, 2014. Yesterday we attended Lonnie's service, along with several dozen members of the Sober Riders MC, and paid our respect to Lonnie and his widow. Amazing that he held on for more than two years with a six-month prognosis by the doctors, an incredibly strong man.JackoftheGreen wrote:We helped orchestrate a fund raiser today, it went well and though we're both tired we're in good spirits.
A rider friend of ours was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer just before Christmas, they gave him six months tops and he and his wife decided they wanted to go to Disneyland sometime before he got too sick to go. Thus was born the 'Lonnie's Disney Dream' fundraising effort, which culminated tonight in an evening of potluck dinners, a raffle, and two local comedians. Dozens of local businesses donated more than $5,000 worth of goods and services to be raffled, everything from gift certificates for massages, hair cuts, tanning and oil changes to scented candles, crocheted and knitted craft items and even a couple solar powered charging packs like the ones GoalZero makes. Lots of friends turned out and opened their hearts and wallets, and I'm happy to say Lonnie and Linda will be able to do Disneyland in style. It's just a shame they wont be able to go by bike for this last road trip.
Enjoy your time while you've got it.
