Introducing Edith and Eugene Tokalot

Good Day.  

I am so happy to let you finally meet the stars of this blog Edith and Eugene Tokalot.  They briefly came up out of the storage locker for a visit and a few photos before retiring to the box they have been living in for the past year.  No worries thought as they will be coming more often and I would think on a regular basis as they are the stars of this blog and need to make a few entries of their own here.

Eugene was born on March 14, 1959 making him 51 and Edith was born on March 22, 1952 making her 58 in a couple of days.  They come from Ventura, California and are creations from Axtell Expressions.
    
I can now add this to the facts: they have each been married and divorced three times . . . from each other.  They make a great pair.  The last name Tokalot suits them very well as they both talk a lot and never shut up.  Edith was a librarian and Eugene a locomotive engineer for one of the rail companies that no longer exists, having slowly disappeared into non-existence.

Edith is a psychic and works the Tarot daily, day in and day out from morning till night.  Eugene sleeps most of the day.  After having breakfast in the morning he takes a nap, after lunch he takes a nap, before and after dinner he takes a nap and then he goes to bed around 11:00PM.  He does get a lot of things done during the day but Edith needs to nag at him a lot before he gets moving though.  It’s a good thing they live in an RV as it is much easier to take care of than the stick and brick home they sold a few years back.

They have no children or so they say.

They own and live full time in a used 21 foot 1988 GMC Vandura 3500 Corsair Class C Motorhome that I talk about here regularly.

Now, I feel much better that I met these two and that we can move forward with getting on with their, with our adventure.


See you all later. . .

More Heavy Rain - enough water already!

The rain has not let up for the past 24 hours although the weather forecast is for it to end abruptly today around noon or so they say.  The weather is great none-the-less.  I love the mild weather even if it is a bit wet.  The local mountains are losing all the snow that fell in December.  One local mountain lost over a metre of snow and they were saying that the snow was melting at a rate of 1 centimetre every couple of hours.  On top of that many trees are starting to pollinate and last week I saw a group of robins searching for food outside the office door.  Spring may have already arrived.

I have many ideas running through my mind as to how my/our RV adventure will unfold.  I see myself traveling all over North America with Edith and Eugene in tow.  Edith and Eugene are still holed up in the cardboard box they arrived in last March/April.  They will make an appearance soon, I promise.

For those of you out there that may not know who Edith and Eugene are I will tell you that they are my puppets that I ordered from Axtell Expressions last year.  I have been working on and practising my ventriloquial skills off and on for over a year now and thankfully I have not lost the skill I have but at the same time it has not improved much either.  Edith and Eugene are the true force behind this blog and as soon as our adventure begins you will be reading their comments right here in this blog.

The rain is letting up some and the day is getting a might brighter too!

Until next time. . .
