Wife and I finally escaped the Land of Entrapment.  The Army was my escape from Yuma, then work brought me to NM.  Glad to finally be back home.

Been in Snowflake area for the past two days, and we are extremely happy.  Nice to be on a piece of land with peace and quiet, the nearest neighbor a couple of acres away and a little town with friendly people.  My blood pressure has finally returned to normal.

Welcome home!
I beat feet out of NY to AZ 6&1/2 years ago. Very happy here.

Welcome back. The Navy got me out of Yuma in 1967, spent a lot of time in California. Ten years in Texas, great place but the humidity was horrible. I finally made it back last year, I've been having a great time since I got back rediscovering the beauty of the Sonoran desert.

Thank you for the welcomes, it's good to be back.  The wife and I fell ill with the Batflu a week after we got here.  She is still in ICU in Showlow and is on an intubator as of yesterday.  I am somewhat cured, but I am worried about her.  Life can kick you in the teeth at times.

Thank you.

Load yourself down with zinc, vitamins B, C and D.  Stay hydrated.

We had plans to get vaccinated, but getting out of NM sidetracked us.  After sitting with her in the ICU every day, watching people come in and corpus being wheeled out, I wish to hell we had gotten them.

Stay safe, my friends.  It is hard watching a loved one suffer.  If I could trade places with her, I would be the one laying in that bed.

Welcome to AZ!  Don't beat yourself up too bad - around half of the people I know who are fully vaccinated have still gotten COVID anyway, quite a few getting pretty sick too.  I have a family member works in a major hospital, many of the severe cases being admitted are fully vaccinated and even boosted too.  Of course, the media won't tell you about that.  

Prayers for your wife!
