Devon, good luck on your return to Allegro and ,Isaac, we wish you a productive summer with Travellers. Miss you two and love you very much. GM and GP.

Another great 24 hours. A couple of thoughts about capitalizing on a few of your experiences:
– How about a short article for Yankee Magazine. They focus more on New England, especially Mass. and Vt. They typically use to pay $300 to $500 for a short story. It would be a terrific .Fernandez brother’s article.
– Devon, with his engineering, might invent a little bike gadget to better absorb and retain more significant sun power
With love for a great and safe homestretch……………..GM and GP

Hi boys,
Well, you guys are fantastic!!!!! Grandma and I can’t believe what you’re accomplishing. What an experience you’ve had. We very much have enjoyed your blog entries. Can you imagine…from silk worms to dust mites, and in addition having to deal with unfriendly P-Town and then wrapping it up with the amount of rains and storms you’ve endured. WOW, you two have passed a significant survival test and are ready to handle ANYTHING.
We were so pleased that your dad had a chance to catch up with you two. What a nice reunion. I’m sure it was memorable. You know, I’ve at times said that when we get to be 50 or 60, and think back on a lifetime, that we probably will only remember the equivalent of about 15 minutes of real highs and real tragic lows. The rest of our lives may pass our mind as a blur. This journey and meeting up with your dad will surely be one of those special highs. By the way,Isaac, who is Starla?
For your information, Grandpa went out and got himself a nice map of Mass. to follow your different destination points, as per your blog each. I was able to easily locate the towns. It took just a bit more searching for those parks. However. the one single location that neither grandma nor I could locate was ….THE MANOR. It was not until your dad called us tolet us know of the wonderful time he had with you two that I asked him and found out that that grand location was actually your Hacienda. For a while, grandma and I thought that The Manor might have been an historical monument. We were just out of the loop…oh well.
The kitchen is almost done withe final item being the installation of our countertops due sometime during the first week in June.
We love you….we miss you….and we look forward to hugging you two sometime,soon.
GM and GP
