Nov 4th - voting day

So I am standing in line at 7.15 this AM....doing what????? Voting of course. Everywhere seemed to be packed.....and then my phone rings.....Yes it is my sweetheart - she called. We caught up on the family news before she had to go with the team to the next camp. She sounded in much better spirits and the drugs she was taking for the dysentery were working!

I received 2 further texts:

06.42: Team moral getting low so I made them all bacon and eggs and oatmeal for breakfast. Now spirits rising.

6.25pm: The food is disgusting. I have lost all enjoyment in it. I eat purely to sustain myself.

So I can only assume that either the rooster is dead or he was a hen and the reason for the eggs (see previous blogs). Angie does a mean bacon and eggs, so I can understand the team feeling better. Back at the ranch here everyone is hanging on and we are starting to watch the elections results come in. I have just heard from the other room that Obama has just won Pennsylvania...... Whatever the outcome, this has been a historical election (and no I won't give away where my political leanings are or who got my vote today :-).

Biggles keeps coming up and snuggling - he misses Angie. When he goes out, he still keeps sitting at the end of the drive way waiting for her. (He never sits there normally and you can see him watching the cars).
