I'm over the moon [View all]

My grandson, senior at FGCU in Fort Meyers drove 4hours home tonight to the Keys because they didn’t get his
mail in ballot to him at the dorm in time and he wanted to vote! And because they canceled school in the Keys tomorrow because of hurricane winds and school busses (no worries, just a safety rule), we are all off tomorrow and will have the day with him.

Took him and a friend to DQ for supper and ice cream and filled up his tank, after voting. Guess I have to let his folks have a little time with him.

He’s a GOOD BOY! I brought him up right.
