We met friends from Topeka the 29th of November, traveled with them to Rockport, TX. Arrived here the 30th and now plan to stay until the middle of February. Our original plans were to travel to Donna, TX the 1st of January, but as many of you know, our travel plans are 'in pencil' (always subject to change).

We've been seeing some of the sights and enjoying the weather. Been some rain, but they are needing it here, so can't say too much!

Posted some pictures and will try to stay current.

Stay warm.......;-)

This trip started on 'Mothers Day'( I did treat Barb to an out of state lunch), heading to a 'Retiree Rally' in Winfield, KS. Spent a week there, before traveling to Topeka for a short visit with friends.

Stopped off in Des Moines for couple of days, then on to the Amana colonies, where Barb 'stocked up' on various items.(Bread-butter-meat- etc)

We finally made it to Michigan on the 22nd of May. We were blessed again this year with having all three grandsons with us for a week.

Between the 2 grandsons here in Michigan, we're on the go about 4 nights a week, ballgames, concerts, etc., wouldn't have it any other way

Our plans, always written in pencil, are to leave here the 22nd, headed home, by way of Paducah, KY to another archery shoot, where we'll watch LaDonna, Kurt and Justin.

Long Overdue Update...............






We left home February 13, 10" snow still on the ground, headed to the "Daytona 500".
We went to the race, (never sat that close to the track) then decided to go to the Kennedy Space Center.
Never thought about the Shuttle launch that week. Had trouble finding campground, Barb got lucky with a cancellation, and we took a week at a RV Park near Titusvile, FL. We got to see the launch of the Discovery from our campground.
From there, traveled to Punta Gorda to visit friends, back along the Gulf coast to Louisiana. Worked in TX at a RV club board meeting, then on to a 'Retiree' camp out in Canton, TX.
Stopped on the way home to watch LaDonna/Kurt (Daughter/Son-in-Law) shoot in an archery competition in Paris, TX
Got home April 3.

O.K., a lot has happened to us since we've updated this 'Blog'. We are no longer homeless......we now have a house in Willard, MO. Not that we've spent that much time there yet, we hadn't even gotten completely unpacked, before we hit the road to warmer weather. We are enjoying the weather here in Mesa, AZ.





We've made a few trips to various places around this area. Since seeing a program on the building of Hoover Dam, we had placed seeing the dam close to the top of our 'Bucket List'. We have posted some pictures of our trip to the dam, even took the tour to the inside. Well worth the trip as far as I'm concerned.


The bridge they're building over the gorge is quit impressive in it's self. Had some delays because of weather mostly, but are figuring on completion next year.

Settled in......short term

O.K., we're here at a KOA campground west of Springfield for about 3 weeks. Then we'll make a trip to Topeka for a Fall State camp out and Huff N" Puff, which is a hot air balloon gathering.
We survived Niagara Falls with the 3 grandsons. Last year when Barb and I went, we didn't get as wet as we did this year......figure that! We have some pictures from the waterproof camera, but as yet, haven't figured how to get them on computer. I think they all enjoyed the trip, I know we did, having them together again.
Now Justin is at Fayetteville, AR, guess we're now Razorback fans for the University of Arkansas!
