Ok, I knew something was going on, but I wasn't quite sure what it was...but now the cat is out of the bag & I'm really excited. Jodi and Holger have been in cahoots and have planned a trip for me to go visit Holger, Katie and Mini-Schneider for a week either late in August or early September. That's all I know for the moment, but I will be sure to give you more details when I have them.
So some homework for the rest of you...what would be the ultimate McMurdo gift I could bring to our good freinds? Give it some thought and let me know what you think.

Wow, what a nice surprise. I know you can't wait. It seems to me that everytime you go over there, it's cold so August/September timeframe should be great weather.
ReplyDeleteThe best part is that you have several months to think about your trip.
Granny always said the anticipation of a trip was almost as much fun as the trip itself.
Well, Papa and I are going to Panama City on Friday and Saturday to work and probably won't even get over to the beach, does that count as a trip?

I think a good gift for our German friends would be a good old fashioned McMurdo crap master award!
ReplyDeleteLOL
Hey Tim, Mr. McMurdo, Sir!!!
ReplyDeleteIt was not mine, it was the idea of Jodi! She wrote to me in December last year, trying to find out if Katie and I would mind. We never would and I took the chance to invite her as well. Unfortunately she doesn’t have the vacation but she promised that her trip is only delayed not cancelled. You really must be a lucky man with a wife like Jodi at your side!!!
I told Katie about the good news when you have called yesterday and she was very happy to hear that you’ll visit us again. I don’t think I have to say that we both are excited as well. We will have a great time then. Take shoes for hiking with you when you come. Probably we will do some nice walks around lovely “Siegerland” on the “Rothaarsteig” (it’s a trail in the forrests around). “Little Schneider” will get a nice seat on my back. :-)
I told Jo and Jeanette about your visit as well and they said we’ll have to come to them when you’re here again, perhaps for a German BBQ?
I’ll give you a call next week.
