September 2015

It’s starting to get cold…… Fall is definitely here!

Labor Day weekend, we drove over to Kahneeta Resort and spent the day with Brandon, Karen, Ben and Anna along with their friends Jodi and Trevor and their two boys.  Fun Day!

The mountains are beautiful and the colors are gorgeous.

We drove over to the Portland to spend a few days with the kids before we
took off for our winter home.

Brandon, Karen, Ben, Anna and Mike all ran a 5K to benefit the
local high school.  We went to a cross country meet where we watched
 Ben and we also watched Anna as she steps up in her work with gymnastics.

 

Camryn was chosen Sophomore Homecoming Princess -
What a great honor.  We went to her soccer match (she even scored a goal)
We also got to see Colby in his football game. 
He plays almost every position!    (They won)

Brandon looks pretty happy – what a great catch!

Dinner with Tom and Vanessa Campbell – great to get together. 
Really fun people.

We also got together for dinner with our dear old friends,
Ron and Jan Herinckx.

A wonderful visit from friends who live in Alabama.

It was wonderful seeing Tom and Linda West.

Time to close up our Sunriver lot and think about heading south.

I think the deer will be happy to have the property all to themselves again.

First stop – Corvallis, Mike and his buddy Perry Swanson took in an Oregon State football game.  A couple of good looking old men having fun!  

We stopped for a few nights in Lodi, California.  We got to see our friends, John and Sharon O’Connor.  John had a hip replacement 10 days before… he is doing wonderfully.  Great to see them.

We finally made it to Indio, CA.  Our winter home.  It’s hot here!  106 today – but never the less…. I love it here.  So happy to be here!  The resort looks outstanding!  Yes the grass has just been reseeded and is still brown.  Yes it is still too hot to put in the colorful flowers….. But everything is clean, neat and looks great!

I’m so happy – Life is good!
