A new course of action

Finally, some good news. I called the airline this morning and they are waiving the rebooking fee. YEA!!! That saves us $200. And we have one year to rebook our flight. We are planning on going April 8, 2006 (just 179 days from now) for a week, but we are waiting to see what kind of damage the hurricane does. Because if it wipes the Florida keys off the map, we surely don't want to go there in 6 months. There is a slight price increase between going now vs. April, but we can manage that with no problem. Plus, when we go in April, we will be able to stay in the exact same place, same cottage and we will be able to stay longer. Plus, no threat of hurricanes.

Both Laura and I are really looking forward to this weekend. We are going to Cheatau on the Lake in Branson for a couple nights. This place is amazing. We went and looked at it last August and it's really neat. It's on a huge hillside overlooking Table Rock Lake. Then we are going to Eureka Springs for two nights to stay at the same bed/breakfast we stayed at in March. We are going to go see "Joseph and the Amazing Techicolor Trenchcoat" in Branson and then in Eureka Springs we are going to go see "The Great Passion Play". Plus, we are going to do lots and lots of shopping. Our plan is to get some of our Christmas shopping done and look for those little stocking stuffers. So, all in all, it's going to be a great weekend.

The Kansas City Chiefs were scheduled to play in Miami this Sunday and due to the hurricane, the game has been rescheduled for tomorrow night. You know it's serious when they start messing with the football games. :)

One sad note, many of you may know this, but I did NOT win Poweball last night. I thought with the way our luck was going, we were bound to win it. When they gave the numbers last night, I looked at Laura and said, "I'm sorry, but you will have to go to work tomorrow morning." Maybe next time, right?!?
