Dear Ted #52 - New England

 This week has been stressful, sad, exhausting and makes me miss you so very much.   The new airport opened on Tuesday.  It's monstrous.  I feel I walk 100 times more than I ever did.  Walking in is further - so walking out is.  But it's pretty beautiful.  So - I'm glad we're there.  But, that first morning all I could think of is you.  You would have wrapped me in a big hug.  You would have said, "go get 'em" or "go show 'em how it's done".  I may have even worn the dress, but I don't know.  You used to like the dress just because you liked zipping it up and zipping it down.  Anyway - I just know you would have been trying to figure out when and where we could have gone, just so you could go to the new place.  😊😊😊 My memories are full of our last vacation.  When we went to New England.  That was probably one of my very favorite trips.  I don't know why road trips with you are always in my top faves, but they are.  The memories

We were ok here.  No damage.  Still have power.   I did have one problem, though.  The cold air caused my tires to lose pressure.  So I needed to get air in them.  In the past, you would have fired up your monster compressor outside and would have filled them up for me.  This time I had to either take it to the tire store and have them check and fill or d
