On the road (I mean River!) again!!!

August 9, 2009 (9.9.09---suppose to be good luck!!)

So Brian is now on the barge. They gave him his own room with a full size bed, own toilet and shower, and it is air conditioned. (I don't even have my own room in my own house!! He has it better there than here!!) He said he has been hanging out with the captain and swapping stories and that the crew is very nice. He also said that the lunch room (don't think it is called that, but can't remember what he called it!!) is open 24/7 (that is even better than he has it here...he's lucky if our kitchen is open 1/7!! just kidding...I'm not that bad!!!) He is enjoying himself and sounded very excited about the whole thing. (And why wouldn't he be...free housing, food anytime you're hungry and he doesn't have to cook it, telling stories.....I want to crew a barge too!!!) The only bad thing....he has to get up at 4:30 in the morning. (Now I don't know about all of you, but my theory is that God made the roster crow in the morning for a reason. If the sun isn't up, I shouldn't be up. Its not natural and against nature!!!)

Anyway, things are going good. I will keep you posted!!!
