Hello to anyone who might see this. I have been soooo busy, my computer died, and I only have my pictures on one of the not-networked computers. Excuses, excuses. Anyway, thought I would try to keep up on this. Time will tell.
Anyway, this summer we had a few 'biggies' happen in our lives. The biggest is that we upgraded campers! Below you can see us driving off with the 7 year old pop-up. It had served us well, we have many fond memories and will never forget the years we had it. Now onto the new camper!!!! The best things are: bathroom, 3 real beds, bathroom, full size refridgerator, bathroom, the main area is hardsided - ready when we get there! and did I mention... A BATHROOM!
I know it might seem odd that I am so excited about the biffy, but at my age I fell I deserve to travel only a few feet in the middle of the night or bad weather, not 1/4 -1/2 mile!
As we were setting up our new digs we had a few minor changes at home too. We now have new air conditioning and furnance. OK, not the most fun big purchases, but we live in Minnesota - need them both in WORKING condition!
Anyway, the camper is hibernating and the furnace is on. Now all we are having to deal with are the bills!
