Brenda, I am sorry to hear that your position was eliminated. It really was a pleasure to come in and see your always smiling face. A big loss for the Red Cross and for you.
1 month agoHello Jamie~
My position was eliminated in June @ the ARC. Twenty-three Donor Center Coordinators Staff Nationally also lost their jobs. After being employed there since 2000, it surely is different not traveling there to go to work. I do miss the donors and the staff.
Thank you for all your life-saving Platelets … you truly are a Hero!
Wishing you the best!
Safe travels😊
Brenda Cadieux
Hi Barbara~I think Jamie needs a Red Cross umbrella as well😉
1 month agoWhen I traveled to Vermont (via pick-up) in 1995, I traveled through the U.P. and thought, "I can't wait to come back here." I've never been back, but it was beautiful, as experienced in late August in a vehicle.
In separate news, I hiked about 17 miles today and thought, "Running was so much more efficient" and also, "I'm glad I'm not on a bicycle."
Thanks to you and Tina for this travelogue! I'll go back and catch up on entries, and I'll be nudging RC staff to check in. I love what you're doing with the photos & entries.
Oh - since you missed the World's Largest Bale of Hay Wound By a Single Person in Darwin, MN, you might consider seeing the World's Largest Pitchfork in Casey, IL. Unlike the World's Largest Filing Cabinet in Burlington, the Pitchfork does not disappoint.
take good care, and thank you for sharing Bob with us!
Ah, if only you had a Platelet Donor "fanny pack" that you could use for your phone! There is one in your future...
1 month agoThank you Brenda! This has been what I hoped for and expected. Look forward to seeing you soon
1 month agoSome how, I missed that attraction! Trust all is well with you and the crew and look forward to seeing you and the crew in about a month and a half.

You are leaving my old stomping grounds, MN and WI - I can only hope you saw the World's Largest Ball of Twine Wound by a Single Person, in Darwin, MN.
Sorry it has taken so long to catch up with you - for us at the Red Cross, the time has flown!
Stay safe and strong. I'll catch the crew up if they haven't been paying attention.
What a nice couple.
