A change in our holiday plans

Mike Mitchell - 12/27/2008

I just wanted to drop you a quick line to let you know that I will, in fact, be here this week.  My wife’s aunt died in the wee hours of Saturday morning. Her aunt had been ill for quite a while and, at 82, this wasn’t entirely unexpected. Still, it was a shock but my wife, Donna, is handling it well. This was definitely her favorite aunt, and we’ll be helping the family deal with things for a few days. We've canceled the cruise and will be in town, but we have decided to keep Hawgleg closed for business so we can focus on family and take a bit of a vacation near the end of the week. You see, my wife had saved up all her vacation days through the year so she could take a nice, long cruise and since she can’t save the days for next year, we’re going to do a few touristy things around Houston.

We may try to reschedule the cruise to mid summer, near our anniversary in July, or perhaps even later in the year.  We had cruise insurance to handle a situation like this, so we have a few options available to us.

I hope everyone has a Happy New Year, and I’ll talk to ya’ll soon.
