My Adventure Dreamz

  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 ...

"The car will still run if you let the engine cool down" That quote is from my dad.  Maybe someday I will let the engine cool down, but for now, I'll keep rolling. September is Ken's birthday month and we celebrated all month!! We took a HOT ride to Medicine Park, OK. The plan was to drive to the top of Mt. Scott to see the sunset but it was so hot even the animals were hiding out of sight.  We tried on Sunday but they closed the park due to heat.  We did get to see some beautiful places and eat some great food and hope to go back when the weather is cooler. We got back from Medicine Park and I hit the road for Texas.  I promised Ember I would do something with her for her birthday (her birthday was in August).  She was fine with a late trip to Great Wolf Lodge.  Hard to believe this girl is 9. Back to OKC to help Ken clean up the property where he hunts.  It is so beautiful out there.  I mowed lots of weeds while he cut branches off the deer...

  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 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
