Happy trails.

Good Morning Everyone! Coffee is about done, but it was very good!

My new laptop decided to update this morning, and I thought, OK, go ahead, take about 5 min's, like always?
Over 2 hours later, it finally got done!

Raining again, just started! And I finally got my account upgraded, I had to set up a new international PP account for over here, as my old business account for the US was not current, and it would not let me update it!

Ron, hope you and Emmett have a safe trip on back to the house, How did he like the beach?

Bobby, will be good to meet you and Sally, and hope Sally's health continues on a upward swing!

I agree with Gordon on the M&G CG for next year! And the pool thing, for the elevation, and the time of the year, may make for some cool swimming?
I will go along with what everyone decides, and have looked at a bunch of CG's, I just don't want to be in a parking lot setting, with no space, and no shade, crammed together! The Black Hills is a beautiful area, and I think we can find a great place!
The car show in Deadwood will be a really fun thing to go see!

Well, got to go see the eye Dr. and order some new lenses!

Everyone have a great day! Rail!

Good Morning,

Prayers out to Rita today for her surgery. After the healing she will feel much better. Take care. Frank, let us know as soon as you can and remember to take care of you too.

Coffee good this am and the donut we got from the cider mill we stopped at yesterday. We went for a Sunday Ride which we do every so often. It was a beautiful day for it. Decided to stop at a local cider mill and boy was it packed. Got a dozen donuts and a gallon of cider. Didn't know you could freeze cider for up to a year but they say you can.

Not much color change up here yet but some. Another month and it will be full bloom.

See the doctor Wednesday for final visit. No issues other than a bit tender when I push too much but will be ok.

Glad Sally is doing better and Kathleen too. Everyone on a prayer list for sure.

You all have a nice day. Lynne

Good Morning;
Prayers to guide the surgeons hands and best wishes for Rita.

Moved the squash from the shed to the attached garage this morning. Cool for the next couple days and then seasonal temperatures. Hoping to go golfing tomorrow.

Daughter is heading off to a convention in Las Vegas tomorrow. Prayers for the victims and families of the shooting there. We are going to grand parent our oldest grand daughter for a few days. Grandma has already laid down some ground rules so all will be fine.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Thoughts of a quick recovery for Rita. Get well quickly.

Martha and I went to Newport yesterday and tomorrow we head to Boston and then Maine. We will be boarding Jake and taking off from the campground to a hotel for Tuesday and Wednesday night.

I finally got around to compiling some of our beach visit videos. The Atlantic is awesome in New England. Enjoy.

Afternoon everyone. Made it back to Texas. Staying at Martin Dies Jr State Park, outside of Jasper, Texas. 40 years ago at this place, proposed to Rebecca Zubik and she said yes. Good memories. Two nights, then on to the Escapees park outside Livingston, TX.

Prayers to Rita. Hoping Lloyd made it back safely from his bike trip with Pat. Everyone stay safe out there. Happy trails.

And a picture of sign at park that Emmett said I should heed. and picture of my huge campsite.

Good Evening Gang,
Rita came through surgery fine, Doc was a little late(about 2 hrs) doing it because of a difficult case before but everything was good. She got binto a room at 3, got her first pain pills at 3:10 and PT & OT got her up at 4, she had help sitting up , then she stood up on her own . Took about 5 steps sideways with the help of a walker then 5 steps forward. Knee bent to almost 90* afterwards, so doing great, I left her at 6, she had eaten dinner and got up again to go potty. pain was there but not debilitating
Thanks to all for the prayers and well wishes. She will be released sometime tomorrow afternoon or early evening, after 2 sessions of PT and OT.
Have a great evening all,
Frank

Good Morning Everyone! Coffee is very good today!

Frank, give Rita a really big hug for me and the girls! Glad everything turned out ok!

Ron, looks like a great site! Glad you are having a good trip!

With all my friends and former co-workers in Las Vegas, non were injured in this senseless shooting, thank god! Prayers going out to all involved!

We got some really hard rain this morning, street lights still on a 8 am, it was that dark! Now just cloudy and the rain has stopped! Think I will walk down to the river and check it out in a little bit. It was really full yesterday, and had some fast moving water!

With that 2+ hour update yesterday, my music that I had downloaded is gone? Not sure how to find it, as everything is so different from what i'm used to! Guess I will try to find it, before I download it again, and then have double!

Everyone have a great day! Rail!
