  Ken got the quick intro to my family and friends. We started with my sister-in-laws.  It was nice to have Mary in from Florida. Next night was spent with my girl cousins and their spouses.  This month I said good-bye to Holiday Shores in Durand, MI.  So many years making memories with great friends.  I will still be visiting Michigan just not staying the whole summer. Ken got to meet my Blue Water RV'ers Family. This group is so much fun. The campout was at Turkeyville in Marshall, MI. Mike, the group fire starter. This is Knox.  The newest puppy in the Blue Water group. Ken had to leave Michigan early and get back to OKC.  I drove the rig and stayed at a couple new Harvest Hosts.  The first one was at the end of the Route 66 in Atlanta, IL.  I was right next to a train track but it wasn't bad.  I would come back here again. The next stop was Bold Spoon Creamery.  This place was beautiful and the hosts were amazing.  Flash, t...

July 2023

July started with a visit from Nate and Ember.  I think Ember enjoyed playing pool the most.  We look forward to having Athena join them on their next visit. It is getting HOT here so we try to ride early in the day. Took off with some friends early one Saturday. We stopped at a favorite place for food and then headed home for a few games of pool. We also did a rally with  Solo Elite Events, LLC .  They planned for short runs between stops. This group had some amazing give-a-ways and freebies.  The best part of the ride was the people we met. I took the new camera and shot over 100 photos for them.     That is our photo tour of July.   August will be busy.  We head out for a short vacation.  The rig will come back to OKC and get parked in it's new space.  I look forward to posting lots of pictures in the August Blog

  June was filled with adventures, weddings and road trips with family. I had extra time to check out the Greenville area so I stopped by the  Garst Museum .  They have a few well know people from this area, Annie Oakley and Lowell Thomas are a couple. Click on the link to view the museums web site. I arrived back at Holiday Shores on June 11th for a short stay before the  family road trip.  The rig will stay in Michigan till August. I was in Michigan for three days.  I had time to do some shopping and have dinner with my oldest granddaughter Ella, then it was time for a family road trip to Manchester, Vermont for my nieces wedding.  The trip was great with my sister-in-law Linda and my great  nephew Camden riding along. I would like to introduce you to Kiki. No, she is not mine but I did get to  puppy set her while I was in Michigan. She is a doll! The map only shows the journey's in the RV.  The map would be a mess if I added all of my...

  Where does the time go? I don't even have the May blog done and June is almost over. Life is good!! What a ride. 500 miles or so round trip!! It was a beautiful tour even if it was cold and rainy. The organizers did a great job and everything went so smooth. We already booked a room for next year!! Ken built a dresser for me. It is a beautiful piece of furniture.  Looks like I am home. The little opossum was hanging around the house for awhile. The prairie dogs are a couple miles from the house. This is an old before picture but it gives you an idea of the work that went into this project This is the finished project. Now the grass needs to grow I have been using the Canon 90D to take pictures from the back of the bike. The original dinner on Route 66  And the replica down the road I spent the last day of school with Ember. Tossing the Frisbee has become our new pastime. I think that is everything for May.  June has been busy with travel, rallies...
