June & July 2021

 This summer has been crazy, 
June was one huge roller-coaster ride between looking at a new RV 
and helping the kids get moved back to Georgetown.  

Here is the short story!

This is the new toy I bought for the smaller RV.  It is a Campmaid charcoal grill.
It came with a 12 qt cast-iron dutch oven (it's heavy) that I will never use.  For some reason I thought it was going to be an 8 qt.   

 

With June comes high school graduations.  I had the honor of spending graduation day with this lovely young lady and her family.  Thank you for the invite Cooper family.


I made it to Texas and had time to eat breakfast before the kids 
arrived at the new house.
Then the movers showed up and it was game on.  
It was fun spending time with Ember at the playground.  
The days were HOT but it cooled down after dinner.  
See you guys in December!!!


I got an invite to the June ACF meeting.  
Pulled pork fresh off the grill with all the sides.
It was an amazing meal and nice to see everyone.



July started with spending time with family on the lake for a 
beautiful sun set and fireworks.
It was a perfect evening.



The fireworks show was amazing.






Thanks Shannon & Mike for hosting a beautiful show
I took a short trip to silver lake sand dunes to visit with the
Blue Water RVers.  Since I don't want to move the rig, I opted for a B&B.
Hart House was amazing package of great hosts, hot tub, great food and puppies!









The morning consists of a three course breakfast that was amazing.

Chocolate banana muffin and ginger poached pear.
The entrée was green chili strata, polenta fries and local bacon.



Morning #2 was Chris's grandma's poppy seed lemon bunt cake, breakfast banana split and I don't remember what the entrée was but it was amazing.



When I got back to the house that night there were the best warm chocolate chip cookies waiting to be eaten.  I ate two and didn't sleep at all the first night.


I know these wings look good but they were even better in person



I didn't go for the dune ride but we did drive over to check out the view


And I bought another toy at the Hart art fair.  
I have successfully got it broke in.


And this happened in July!

I bought a 2021 Equinox.  I needed a lighter car to tow
behind the new rig.  I love this car!! 


I hope you all are enjoying the summer!!

April started at the Arkansas Whiskey Fest. Ken had never been to anything like this. It was a well organized event with a lot of different beverages  to taste and good food to eat. John and Tammy have a beautiful back yard and the best fire pit. The big bike trip for Maywas the 5 State Run. We did the run last year and it rained and you can see by all the layers everyone has on it was rainy and cold this year.  Rain or shine the ride is always beautiful and the stops are fun also.  We already have a room booked for next year. A few pictures from home.   June is when the fun began.  I dropped Ember off at home in Texas on June 1st and I headed home.  I had a great plan to get home on Saturday, pack the rig on Sunday and head to Michigan on Monday.  That planned got changed when I got a wonderful case of food poisoning. I was able to slowly pack the rig on Monday and leave on Tuesday.   While in Michigan I was able to visit with my Uncle Bob and Linda and so many other friends.  I think

October 2023 Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta

  Our first day at the Balloon Fiesta set the stage for the fun that was to come. As you can see the rig in the picture is not mine.  I took mine in to have some things fixed and while it was in the shop the fuel pump went out.  Other than the cost of renting a rig I was glad this didn't happen during the trip. We were up at 4:00am to arrive at the field for our hot air balloon ride.  The ride was amazing and the landing was easy but the best part was exchanging rings and vows with this amazing guy. We were on the field that morning to see the drone show, dawn patrol, fly over, singing of the national anthem and to see the pilots do a candle stick burn.  The red arrow shows where the rig was parked. We had free days and took a few trips to the Sandia  Mountains.  The first trip was a smooth twisting road, the second was a narrow, rocky dirt road.  That is where we found the cave.  The cage you see is the entrance to the cave.  The third way we seen the mountain was a tram ride to t

August 2024 - Ballons, Bike & the Great Outdoors

  I am patting myself on the back for posting the August blog before the end of September!! August was a HOT month here in Oklahoma City but that didn't stop us from having some fun. I took these photos on a different walk in the same park. We tried a new restaurant at the Grand Casino.  It is called Soto Sushi .  We weren't super hungry and decided to share a couple of plates.  The presentations were beautiful and that brown sauce was some type of beef reduction that was off the chart amazing.  We are already talking about a return trip. These are my random photos that I was not sure where to put.  The first one is from a trip to Eischen's Bar for their famous fried chicken.  I loved the way the sun set colored the building.  The Chevy Nova was in tow at the casino during the Bug Run.  I didn't get any pictures of that event because my allergies were in full touture mode and taking a lot of pictures was not high on my list.  Even though I felt awful it was a great run.
