August 2021

 Dad and I took a road trip to Muskegon to check out a couple museums.  The first one is the LST 393.  She was used to ferry men, vehicles and prisoners on and off the beaches of Normandy.  The displays on this ship are amazing.  



This is a piece of art in the go around.


Silversides was our other stop.  I admire anyone who could live
on a sub and sleep over bombs.





These are my sister-in-laws.  We were able to get together for dinner one night while Mary was visiting from Florida




There has been so many fun events at Holiday Shores but this was my favorite event and into the night.  We had great house decorations and the best haunted golf cart path.  The night and the company was so much fun!!






I found one of my favorite restaurants, First Watch, in Livonia and I went from there to the Detroit Zoo .  





















Be still my heart






August was a good month.  I will check out the zoo in Lansing next.

RIG UPDATE:  Looks like I wont get the new rig until January.  They can deliver it to me in Florida. I will adjust my travel agenda and keep my fingers crossed.

October-November-December 2024

  October was a beautiful month to ride.  We took off for the day and headed to Mt. Scott.  We got to see lots of bison and had a huge burger. We flew to San Antonio to celebrate mile stone 60th birthday with friends from high school.  We had a great time eating, drinking and laughing. November was a beautiful month.  We made it out to the camp and Ken shot a doe.  It was a first for me.  I got to help gut a deer. This was our amazing Thanksgiving dinner. December was also busy.  We flew to Las Vegas to check an event off my bucket list.  I am a long time Eagles fan and we got to see them preform at the Spheer.  I could not have asked for a better venue.  The sound and the show were off the chart.  We didn't have enough time to do everything so that means we will head back there for a second trip. We went to the OKC Zoo for their winter show.  Bill and Shellia tagged along and we had a great time. We hit the road for Georg...

September Birthday - Building & Bikes

We celbrated this guy turning 61. This was our second Brizalian Steak House.  We only had the salad bar at the first one.  Next time I will know to hold out for the better cuts that came later after we were full. It sure has been HOT so the walks start early to beat the heat.  The wild life is getting easier to spot and so are the Christmas decorations. We had beautiful weather for this little project.  Bill Grey pre-fabbed the walls and roof.  It went together easy with the help of a long set of forks for the tractor. We had friends stop by on their way to SC from Las Vegas.  It was so great to visit as they start a new chapter in their lives. We ate some great food and stopped by the Oklahoma City National Memorial. It is always a fun ride to Eureka Sprinks, AR.  Our hosts were amazing and the rides were beautiful.  We were able to meet up with another couple and spent a day riding with them.  It was hot but beautiful. We have a big trip pl...

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 a...
