Hey ! It's the weekend !

Well the weekend is here.  4 more days until we relocate to Loveland Co. for three mos. and hopefully a cooler climate.  Lots of heat , wind and fires here in Dodge City.  There was a good size fire just West of us yeaterday.  Good thing the wind had changed directions or We would have been chared!!  Crispy.  The Lord took care of us again.  I don't know what started it but I am glad they got it under controll.  Fire trucks were still over there last night putting out cinders.  We are going to Garden City tonight and have supper with Billie's sister, Idabeth, and her family.  Looking forward to a good visit. We just about have everything ready for our move.  Probably dump tomorrow or Mon., fill up with gas and perform final checks.  Well I will write later when we set set up in Colorado.

It's Friday

Well. Here it is again.  Friday.  Another week is gone.  I am older.  So what else is new ? Not much here.  I have been doing some repairs on the car tow dolly.  J'B Weld works wonders.  Hope it holds on the plastic fenders.  Some old cracks and splits needed repaired.  Will wait a few days and then touch up the gaps.  Billie is doing the laundry today.  It is about 100 F here with lots of wind.  Very dry.  We will leave on the 15 th. for Colorado.  Hopefully it will be cooler there for the summer.  Hope gasoline prices continue to fall.  About $1.00 gal. would be ok.  It is not worth that but I really doubt it will drop.  We are over the barrell, no pun intended, and a president and Senate with no guts.  Well someone voted them in .I didn't.

It's windy here !!!

It has been really windy here this last week.  Several days of tree bending wind.  The slide toppers on the Motorhome have really been poping.  We are enjoying the kids and visiting old friends at church.  Not much rain though.  We will leave on 15 June for Loveland Co. to get out of the summer heat. We will try to make some short car day trips while we are there.  Gasoline is eating up our budget.  As it is everyone else I am sure.  Does anyone out there Read this ? SEEYALATERALLIGATOR!!!! I feel so IGNORED !

Dodge city, its cold !!!

Hi guys.  We are safely in DCity now.  However more refrigerator problems.  Problem with that is there is no one to fix it here.  The one RV place in town can't look at it until mid June after we leave for Colorado.  The one mobile  RV repairman from Garden city wants $ 350.00 just to drive over here, 50 miles, and look at it for 1 hour.  Well so much for being  in Western Kansas.  No civilization out here in the hinterland !! It is cold and rainy here today.  We are going to see the new Pirates of the Caribbean today.  Looks good on the tv trailers.  We are enjoying our time here.  Will see old friends again and our church family this Sunday. Good to be able to visit with the kids and grandkids for a few weeks. Hope we don't have any hail or tornadoes while we are here.  If we do, the tornado shelter is only 10 feet away. Well, better go for now.  Got to get busy.  SEEYALATERALLIGATOR !!!

BRRRRRRRR!!! it's cold here.

Well we have one more week to go in Independence before we leave for Dodge.  Jesse graduates this week, party Sat. ant Sun. swimming at a motel with a big waterpark with the kids.  We will be in Dodge for three or four weeks before going to Colorado.  It has been cold here.  50s day and 40s nights with rain and clouds.  Boo.  We want it warmer.

Independence Missouri

Well guys.  Just thought I would update you.  We are in Independence Mo., home of Pres. Harry Truman.  We went to our grandaughters Thespian banquet last night.  She won all kinds of directing and acting  awards.  She is an inteligent and beautiful girl.  Today we got up about 10 am.  and played tourist.  We visited Pres. Truman's home and Presidential Museum and Library.  Very interesting.  Got in for free on our National Parks golden age pass.  Interesting that a peson with just bairly a high school education could be President and drop the first Atomic Bomb.   Today we have overly educated idiots in elected office.  It's our own fault.   We vote for them over and over.  Why don't we get rid of them? Well tomorrow we are going to see some more free sights. I may have to break down and pay to see the Steamship Arabia.  Very interesting story.  Google it.  Well Billie is cooking supper so I better go. SEEYALATERALLIGATOR!! SEEYALATERALLIGATOR !!!!!

Update

Well.  Just thought I should update everyone on what we have been up to.  We have left Victoria.  Spent a great winter there.  Lovely city.  We found a loving church to attend.  We joined under their Watchcare program for Winter Texans. We were in their Easter Pagent .  YES ! I did participate on a small scale. We have left the humidity and heat for the summer.  We  stopped in Breckenridge Tx. where we attended my 46 th. HS reunion and saw some classmates that have been absent for a long time.  Had a great visit.  We are now in OKC for a few days and then on to KC for a two week visit to see our Grandaughter graduate. Then to Dodge City for 3-4 weeks be for ending up in Loveland Co. for the summer.  We might go to the Balck Hills with our daughter who lives in Loveland. It would be a car trip since gasoline has gone crazy.  It will be a fun trip with her family.  Will probably see the other sights while we are there.  Will be glad to renew old acquaintences at the rv park. Well I am about all takked out. SEEYALATERALLIGATOR !!!!!!
