Randy Travis

 

  Randy Travis did not disappoint. He put on a great show. Earlier in the day I took the tracker to the Dr. for new brakes & tires. On Saturday we went up to our campsite and brought back some stuff for storage at Robins. Sunday we went to our new cousins baptism. Yesterday I was back at the dentist. Boy I’ll be glad when that's all done. Tomorrow we’re going to close up Emily’s slides and head to upstate NY. Paula’s family is having a reunion. When we come back on Sunday we’ll pickup our grandson to stay the night and Monday. His mom & dad have meetings at the schools they teach at but he doesn’t start back until Tuesday. We’ll have a fun day of board games.

  Some friends that we met on the road are going thru some tough times. They found a mass on Jay’s brain and he will be operated on later this week and his wife Fay had a heart attack and had surgery. Please keep them in your thoughts & prayers.

Jersey Shore

  We had a great time at Seaside Heights NJ. Connor loved the ocean and boardwalk and the pool at the motel. We’re not used to traveling without the RV there was several times there was sometime we wish we had brought with us. We also didn’t like having neighbors coming home late at night. The RV will go with us from now on.

  Tuesday I had my  annual stress test and I’m still waiting for the results.  Yesterday we both had dentist appointments. I have 2 more visits. I hope this denture thing works out. Paula went out to lunch with the ladies from the church today and had a good time. I stayed home and took it easy just cutting Robin’s grass. Tomorrow we go to see Randy Travis and we’re looking forward to the concert. 

  We’re still parked in Robin’s driveway and it’s working out ok. We still have a lot of stuff up at out campground in Falls and we’re going to have to start bringing it back to Robin’s to store. We’ve had the same site for around 6 years but with spending next summer in Alaska and traveling the following summer we’re going to give the site up. 

  Enjoy your summer everyone

Still in Plains

  We’re still parked in our daughters driveway and it’s working out ok. It’s been a busy week. Paula had a Dr. appt this week and I spent 3 day’s doing some wiring at our sons. Boy that attic was hot. Then Friday our daughter had a happy hour fund raiser at a local bar so we went to that. Saturday I put a 30a receptacle for the RV and cut the grass. Yesterday I changed the oil in the car and RV and cleaned out and washed the tracker. Our grandson will be over in a bit. Tomorrow we’re taking him down the Jersey shore for a few days. We’re not taking the RV as I want to stay close to the boardwalk and the ocean. We haven’t traveled with out the RV for a long time and it’s hard trying to remember to pack the right stuff. Wish us luck in remembering to take all the right stuff.

We survived

  We made it through another week of cub scout camp. We are tired and sore but we really enjoyed ourselves. The week flew by. Today we’ll rest and tonight we’ll go to a local church bazaar.

Cub Scout Camp Begins

  Boy it’s been hot. Not much getting done. The weather radio has been going crazy with storm warnings and tornado watches. Areas around us have had problems but nothing here. We’re parked in our daughter driveway and we only have 20a service but we’re shaded so it could be worse. Her dogs make her stop over every time they go for a walk and we enjoy seeing them.

  Today starts our week of cub scout day camp. We setup at 3:30 then I go and get certified for the BB gun range. I did the BB’s last year but I wasn’t certified. We enjoy our time with the kids but at the end of the week we’re whipped. 

  Enjoy! Enjoy!

Rally

  After having had the RV parked for around 2 months we hooked up the car and headed about 100 miles south to an Escapee Chapter 20 Rally. A good time was had by all with the only problem being the heat coupled with low park voltage. It was definitely better than cold and rainy. We sure ate more than we should have but that's what being around Escapee’s is all about, good conversation & good food.  When we came back north on Sunday we didn’t return to How Kola our home park but parked in our daughter’s driveway. She lives in Plains and the Cub Scout camp we volunteer at is going to be in Plains this year so we won’t have to get moving to early next week. Hope everyone is enjoying there summer. We are.

Hot Hot Hot

 

  We normally enjoy all the warmth there is and rarely run the AC in the RV but to many 90 degree days has gotten to us and we have turned on the air. We had a nice 4th of July weekend but we are oh so happy the campground is back to it’s quiet self. In a little bit I have to drive down to the valley for my yearly heart doctor visit. Tomorrow we’re going to upstate NY to see Paula’s mom, Monday Paula has a dentist appt., and Wednesday we head down to the Escapee Chapter 20 rally. About as busy as we like to be.

 

Enjoy! Enjoy!
