We were both bummed and excited about finally getting back on the road after our extended stay in Oklahoma. We sure miss our grandson, who by the way, wanted to come with us, but both his parents are real “sticks in the mud” types and said no. I know, what was wrong with those two!Continue reading “It’s about time…”

A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve – is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a check made payable to “The United States of America, for an amount up to and including my life.” That is honor, and there are few too many people in this countryContinue reading “Veterans Day…”

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.
