Break in the action

Last time we checked with our hero, he was exploring the exotic far off lands of Asia.  Adventure!  Drama!  Suspense!  Comedy!  Yea, right.  Sorry for the pause in the action, but things got a wee bit crazy around here (story of my life) and I am trying to wrap things up to head out of town for a extended weekend.  This weekend is the start game of our football season and I have a parking pass and tickets to the opening game.  Will be good to get back into the weekend football rhythm.  Maybe I can get someone to autograph a football for me...  

Trailer is already loaded up, bags packed, bills paid, land barge is topped off, dogs waiting by the back door.  Momma has to stay home to watch over her mother and cannot make the run this weekend.  Bummer.  We had plans to head up to Austin on Sunday to visit with our offspring and his bride, but those plans got cancelled.  So it will be just me and the dogs in the trailer (that's just asking for trouble) this weekend.  

I was trying to wrap up my synopsis on China.  The last hotel was nothing like the first two - nice room, but after the Grand Hyatt, everything seems a bit pedestrian.  Food over in China was good, got to sample some unique Chinsese dishes (dim sum, Peking Duck, Dragon Fruit, lasagna).  Funny how, in Shenzen, because of the typhoon and the rain, we wound up eating in the evening and the Italian restaurant turned out to be our favorite.  I've spent a good part of my week writing up the audit report and getting ready for the next one.  And, yes I have another one that dropped into my lap.  This one popped up on the radar at the last minute and I "volunteered" to lead this one.  This will involve another looong flight to get to/from the place, but, due to the location, I have my motives for this one.  Details to follow.....

In the meantime, I hope to test out my new toy this weekend to see how it works on the road.

Woohoo! Glad you're gettin' the Airstream out on the road again! Sorry you don't get to see your offspring, but a lone trip sounds heavenly to me right now.
You got my wheels spinning about your upcoming loooong flight that you volunteered for. Can't wait to see if I'm right, or even close!
Have a great long weekend!

Sounds like a fun weekend ahead of you! Bummer that Mrs. Agg can't join you, though.

I'm curious about your next audit destination. Can't wait to read all about it.
