I want to thank all you gurus for your very kind thoughts. Your condolences mean a lot to me. Most of you I know only through your postings, but that is enough to know that you are a bunch of kind good-hearted people. Without people like you on our side, people like me would be in real trouble. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Everyone says I'm doing well, I take their word for it. One frequent word of advice I hear is: "don't make any major decisions for at least the first year". Despite that I've been exploring the idea of selling the Newell Alie and I shared. I have trouble imagining trips could be nearly as enjoyable without her there beside me in the copilot seat telling me where to go. If anyone has extensive experience traveling in a large coach alone I would certainly appreciate hearing how it worked, or better yet how you made it work.
