Last day of
October
A quick trip to Algodonas, MX
I lost a filling and needed to get it fixed.
Home again,
Home again
One evening,
we had food trucks here in the park.
About 12 food
trucks.
They were great… we loved the food!
Wow ! We are so happy with the outcome.
The new floor is awesome!
As September comes to an end, we look forward
(at least I look forward) to my birthday month.
😊
We started August at Stub Stewart State Park –
by far the nicest State Park we have ever been to
Visiting with a park
neighbor
Even the deer
love this park
This is our
youngest granddaughter…..Anna
getting ready to head off to college.
We took a drive up to
Hagg Lake
one of our old water skiing
places.
This is Carter - Camryn’s fella.
What a cute couple
After a strenuous 6
holes of golf (I rode in the cart)
We finished the evening
with dinner at the Golf Club.
We have 2 Grand
Dogs….Duke and Enzo.
This is Duke.
This is Mike’s broth-in-law’s show car – It’s a beauty!
After 4 days on the
road – We have finally
arrived back home in Yuma.
They have had some terrible weather while we were gone.
First the remnants of a hurricane.
Houses lost their roofs.
Many had damage.
Then 9 ½ hours of an electricity outage – in 117 degree heat!
All is quiet on our
return. We had a wonderful time while in
the Pacific Northwest.
3 months. We both loved spending time
with family and friends. Already talking about
the next time we will all be together.
Stay tuned.
Without a doubt, the
nicest State Park we have ever stayed at.
Pictures next month!
Our Oregon/Washington
summer adventure continues……
Mount Hood was so beautiful and inviting
June 1st, we left Yuma and headed up
north
for Anna’s graduation and birthday.
A big party to
celebrate “ANNA”
Graduation was from a
very big High School
with all the pomp & circumstance
Grandma & Papa are
so very proud.
The Little Guy “Enzo”
came over to visit with
Mike & I.
Weather has been
great !!
I started having some
back pain and generally just not feeling well.
At Brandon’s insistence, I went to the local hospital Emergency Room.
It was a kidney infection, and two large kidney stones. One stone was too large
to pass and the second (up by my kidney) was described by the doctor as “massive”
I spent the night at
the hospital and the next day, I was in surgery. They were able to get all of the stones
but they put in a Ureteral Stint to stay in for two weeks.
UGH!!!!
After a second night
at the hospital, I was able to go back to Tiny
(our trailer)
This stint is VERY painful… not really pain but a terrible ache.
In the midst of all this,
We moved out of the RV park in Vancouver to another
park down by Marc’s in Sherwood. I have
good days, and some not so good days.
The stint gets removed this coming Wednesday….
And it can’t come soon enough.
Way to put a drag on
the start of our vacation.
Marc, Maria, Mike &
I all took a few days to head over to Sunriver, OR.
The weather was fantastic…. Had a very
relaxing time.
June has been an usual month… but July is coming!!
Stay tuned for
upcoming travels in July.
Cinco
de Mayo at the Yuma Elks Lodge was so festive.
So
much fun!
The Breakfast of Champions !
(Not on competition day !)
Getting ready for the Gymnastic Level 10
(the highest level you can go before entering the Olympic level)
National Finals……
We traveled to Oklahoma City for this National
Event.
While
in Oklahoma City, we visited the Oklahoma City
bombing memorial. Such devastation… this
is a must see !
We
took a boat ride along the waterway in OKC.
The statues, the history, the beauty…..
Amazing.
Oklahoma
City is a beautiful city.
No
litter, no graffiti, no homeless,
BUT
They
have tornados !!
One
night it came very close to us.
We
were out on the freeway and the radio
was announcing “Take Cover – NOW”
I
was scared but Brandon got us back to our rental, safe and sound.
Now
– back to why we went to Oklahoma City….
Anna
did so great. In this picture – moving so
fast,
I
couldn’t get a clean picture.

She
is on fire…..
