We've been here in cooler Colorado for about 3 weeks now.  We have managed to stay really busy doing nothing---OK not exactly nothing, but having a great time.

I wrote that on our way to Colorado I fell and broke a tooth.  The dentist was able to put a temporay filling on and it looks as good as new.  I've not had any problems with it, so hopefully when I see him next week we'll be able to schedule putting a permanet filling or cap on the tooth.

 We've gotten to spend a lot of time with the granddaughters here.  We are over at their house a couple of times a week.

We've taken the girls to the movies, played hours of farckle,  black jack, Banana Gram, Chicken Foot, and SkipBo, watched  several movies on TV and we drove up to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park where we had a picnic on the river.  We've even been shopping a couple of times.

The 4th of July we went to a cookout at our pastor's house with others from the church and then walked down the road about 2 miles to enjoy the fireworks display in Loveland.  What a great time this was of great people, great food and wonderful entertainment.

Yesterday we had a sign made to hang on the front of Bertha.  It says, " Home is where we park it" and has a picture of a motorhome.

 Tomorrow we are takeing the girls and Bonnie to Denver to see the Butterfly Emporium.  Should be a great day.  I'm really looking forward to this as I love Butterflies.

We've met some really great people here in the RV Park.  Woody, a friend we met here last September is also back here.  Lydell spends a lot of time swapping stories with Woody.  He is a really great guy.  We met another couple who are just now starting to live full time in their trailer.  We've had a great time visiting with them and shareing our adventures of RV Living.   We have a lot in common with this couple.  They will be here another month.

Bonnie and the girls and I will be going to Dodge City for the last couple of days of Dodge City Days/rodeo at the end of the month.  Always a good time when we are all togehter for Dodge City Days.  Lydell is going to stay in Loveland with Bertha.

Until next time, ya'll be safe.
