We did something that was not available to us when our children were his age, we went to the mall, specifically we went to the play area insideContinue reading “The Mall…”

Road trip…
No, that is not a can of beer in Norm’s hand. She would never drink a beer when she could have a V8! Leo wanted to go with us on our road trip to Pennsylvania, but he couldn’t find his riding boots or his helmet. We kept forgetting to get a balloon, so Norm madeContinue reading “Road trip…”
More from the Oklahoma History Center…
I tried to remember the date of this Case model tractor. I think it was in the thirties or forties. This is a 1941 Studebaker. The sign read that the Studebaker company, at that time, was the richest automaker in the country.

This Indy car is from the fortieth running of the Indianapolis 500 race. A fellow from Oklahoma won in this car.The 2 upper outlaws look like they don’t have a clue.

Bound for home…
Our rig kind of looks out of place parked in a full hook up site. I’m not sure we got our fifty-six dollars worth for the one night we stayed, but right behind me are the showers and we did get our monies worth out of them. The Glenwood Canyon Resort park is a veryContinue reading “Bound for home…”

Norm tells me that is a long, long way to the bottom. I believe her. Norm took this shot with me having a death grip on her waist line. This, and the photo above was taken from a place called “Exclamation Point.” I’m sure that there is a variety of exclamation’s when you first lookContinue reading “North Rim trail…”

North Rim…
Some of these views are from the drive to the north rim by way of back tracking on highway 50 east bound, and than turning north on to highway 92. Highway 92 is a great drive with the maximum speed being around thirty miles per hour. Lot’s of twists and turns. Norm had to takeContinue reading “North Rim…”

Here is Norm on one of our last rest stops prior to collapsing in the truck and drinking all the water we had. These next series of photographs are from our drive around the south rim route to complete our visit here in the south, and head toward the north rim. Some how I foundContinue reading “We made it…”
