Snowing




Here we are Louisville, Ky at the Louisville South KOA. It is 33 & we are watching snow flurries. We had a nice trip here till we hit Brinkley, Arkansas. We stopped at a Hotel who had RV spots behind them. We're told to take any spot...well....we pulled into #2. Howard decided to back up as we weren't straight so we literally slid into a mud hole..about 12 inches deep. Stuck we were, not going anywhere. Went to talk to the manager who informed us they had just worked on the sewer line & the hole wasn't filled properly..well why did he tell us to take any spot. So we had to call a wrecker to pull us out. Prayerfully it turned out ok. But a bit scary since the 5th wheel was leaning hooked to the truck. No damage done...Thank you Lord. Talking about trusting! Here is a pic or two. The mud was all the way to the axels. The manager never came out to see how we faired..so say the least we won't be staying there again. Till next time...keep those tires rolling

New Texans

We are now Texans. Hope to put up some pics soon. We had some warranty work done on our rig & now we are in Livingston, TX...headquarters of Escapees. An organization that caters to full-timers, part-timers etc. It is a wonderful organization. People here have been so friendly. There is so much to do if you choose. We've been busy running around getting business taken care of. We've even met folks from Auburn & Sacramento. What a small world we have. We had a rain storm Monday night, it even thundered & lightened. A wonderful show. Today has been very nice/sunny. Until next time...keep those tires rolling!

Time is coming

We have been finishing up stuff this week. Howard's last day @ work is Friday. Looking forward to our next adventure. Everyone wants to have lunch this week...so many people..so little time. Saddens my heart but it is great to have so many great friends. Will miss them all. Everyone has placed a special print on my heart. I finished knitting an orange sock..will have to post a picture. Have already changed our address to Texas & informed our magazines. Not many left. Praying for great weather as we leave, our first stop will be in Mojave. A Passport park there..we joined them last month. Great to get a 1/2 off discount. We put some of our summer stuff away & unpacked winter things. Didn't know we had so much. We'll see how much we use this winter. Until next time..keep those tires rolling!

We are off!

Yes our time has come to finally full-time. Howard put his resignation in so his last day will be Nov 5th. Can't believe all our planning has came about. I passed my echo stress test..it was really neat to see your heart beat. No blockages..yipee since it runs in my family. We have purchased a Garmin gps to help us get a long. We also have one for geocaching..It will be fun to cache along the way. Our first stop will be RV Sales in New Mexico to get some warranty work, then on to Livingston to get our tags etc. Until next time...keep those tires rolling!

Geocaching


Well this is what we have been doing the last couple of days. It has been fun to come back to this hobby. We found 2 caches on Monday. A few years ago we started but stopped due to our jobs. Our new gps is coming our way...will have to send a pic when it arrives. When we were at Havasu City a few weeks ago we cached by boat with friends. It will be a great hobby on the road..until next time...keep those tires rolling

Tomorrow is flu shot day:( That time of year again.

River Trip


We are finishing up our trip to the Colorado River. We met some friends down there. It was a fun trip, celebrating my birthday! Never a dull moment on this trip. First while we were out geocaching, our water hose burst. A neighbor came over to turn it off..we created a wonder river! O no!! Then we sprung a small hole leak in our sewer hose. So H had to get an extender & cut the hole out. Then when we left & stopped @ a rest stop the potty lid had came loose. So H had to put the little washer back on. C our friend got us back into geocaching again..we did about 11 while @ the river. It was really fun to find little goodies..hoping to put some pics in..so until next time...keep those tires rolling
