This morning we left the beautiful Blue Bluff Recreational Park and traveled through the Aberdeen Lock downbound to Columbus Marina in Columbus, MS.  We arrived late morning, got fuel, and took a slip for a month.  Ralph also made arrangements for a rental car.  We are suspending our Loop journey for a few weeks and are leaving early tomorrow morning for Northfield, NJ.  

Ralph's mom is now in the Trauma Center in Atlantic City.  She sustained compression fractures of her T-11 and T-12 vertebrae and a broken rib as a result of the fall yesterday.  We need to go to NJ for a bit.  Thank you for your continued prayers for her.

Attached are a few photos from today:

  2. Hi Jeff: Thanks so much. We're in NJ now -- Ralph's mom is in a turtle shell apparatus and having OT, PT, gait training and speech. They will evaluate her Saturday as to whether she can go home or must go into another rehab. Best regards to ya'll. xo
