I'm in Reno and don't have the moolah to get back to the east coast....I have not been a happy camper for a few weeks.

Take care of yourself.  Try to stay strong.  That's particularly tough in your situation.

Gunsmith, sometimes life just piles on. Sorry for your family's stress. Keep in contact with them as you pull out all the stops to find a way to get there.

Surprisingly, out of the blue my ex GF bought a ticket for me, so I'll be flying out to Tampa in May.

Thank you very much, I am a firm believer in prayer.

Hang tough, gs, and lean on the One who is faithful and true.  Your family is on my list.
