Good bye until next year.

Torpedo's are on that trailer. I wonder where they are going.



We asked for a glass for water and got this "big" one.



Molly checked out the bed in the motel room.



A pretty sound wall in NM



Our friends, Cliff and Verona Prigge had a bedroom added to their camper. Sure is nice.

Hello,
I thought I had more pictures that I wanted to post but I guess I am to the end of any important ones. I hope you enjoyed them.

I think we made the weather turn cold as it has been since we got home. I hope it warms up again real soon. It is going to have a hard freeze tonight. I hope the fruit trees won't be harmed.

This will be the final writing until we leave for AZ again next year.
Thank you for coming along.

I am on Face book if you would like to chat.

Have a wonderful summer. Good night and God Bless

Happy Easter

I wasn't going to write tonight but when I seen that I didn't say the
name of the town where the little green men were I had to let you know.
It was Roswell, NM.

I still have a few pictures to show you so come on back on Tuesday. I will write on Monday night.

May you all have a wonderful Blessed Easter. "He is risen."

Goodnight and God Bless.

Good Friday

These are some of the neat things we seen on the way home. Including the space ship and the green alien.

The whole town was invaded by these little green men. I guess they claim that an actual space landing happened some time ago.

Today was another day of putting things away. Washing cloths too. Mel worked on the truck. The brakes froze up on one side. It took some time and a little pounding but it broke loose. Thank goodness. He also replaced the 4 batteries.
Next week he will get his CDL renewed and his hazmat test taken. He should be ready to go to work by Friday.

We had a wonderful Good Friday Service at church. Words and song of love and forgiveness.

Good night and God Bless

Seeing friends

I almost forgot to write tonight.

I visited friend Dixie this morning while Mel had errands in Rochester.

Did some more unpacking this afternoon. I didn't realize we took
so many cloths. I am running out of hangers!!

I made pork chops for supper. Trey joined us. Tasted pretty good.

Church tonight. Service was at our sister church in Grand Meadow.
I got such a warm welcome home from everyone. So good to be home.

I will say good night. I will start earlier and post a few more pictures
tomorrow night. See you then.

Nite nite and God Bless

PS... I just realized it would have been my Dad's birthday today.
Happy Birthday Daddy!! 1901 - 1979

Cupboards are full.

We got a lot of errands done today including groceries. Now the cupboards are full again. Guess I better start cooken again.

Temps were in the low 60's. Frost watch for the next couple of nights.

More unpacking tomorrow.

I will post a few more pictures tomorrow night so check it out.

Good night hugs and Gods blessings.

Day 99... HOME !!!!!

Hello everyone,

It was cooler at Terri's this morning. We slept much better last night.
Amanda gave us her bed and a comfy one too. Thanks Amanda..xx Thank you Terri and Bob for supper last night.

We left about 8:30 this morning. Molly didn't sleep very well the last two nights.
Thought it was the heat but decided it was the fan that bothered her. When we get in the car to go, Molly crawled up in the top of stuff in the back seat and slept all the way home. we stopped and had a snack. Molly always greets us as we open the car door expecting a treat. But she slept right threw this one. She finally got up as we got into Dexter. At the house she checked out the yard then into the house straight to her food dish..that was empty of course.

I have a good start unpacking. I think the back seat is empty but the trunk isn't nor are half the bags of cloths Mel brought.

We are going to get groceries tomorrow. then will work on the unpacking again.

Trey joined us for supper at the Pit Stop. Russ came in to say hello too but had to go to a firemans meeting. Trey had to mow a lawn so left early.
Tom called from his job so we got to talk or see all 4...now to see the grandkids.

Has to be bedtime..... oh boy, our own bed.

Hopefully I will post more pictures tomorrow.

Good night hugs and Gods blessings.

Day 98...Dexter by noon

Hello,

We had a good day at the Speirs but it sure was a hot one. Almost 90 out.

After everyone left the house Mel and I cruised around town and did some shopping. Mel checked out some truck tires too. We met Terri for a quick lunch at Perkins.
Tonight we all had a buffet supper Ryan's. Like the Ol' Country Buffet. Good stuff but ate to much as usual.

Hopefully we can sleep tonight in the heat.

We should be home by noon tomorrow. I can't wait.

Good night and God Bless

Day 97...At Terri's

After an early start we made it all the way to Des Moines.

The motel room's smell of disinfected really got to Mel and he couldn't sleep. He woke me up by a phone call at 6am. Lets get ready to go he says... He was having coffee someplace. This room was about the end of our using Motel 6. The one on Friday night wasn't all that good either. They never used to ask if we have a pet but always welcomed one. This year they ask and I think they give us the worst room they have.

We watched the sun come up this morning and go down tonight. A very long day.

Molly couldn't get enough of the grass here. She didn't want to come in. She roamed around all over.

So good to see Terri, Bob, Amanda, and Aidan. With their work and school hours I hope we can visit some more.

Good night hugs and Gods Blessings

Day 96... Many miles today

We are in Elk City, OK at a Motel 6. Not the best Motel 6 we have been to but clean. We went a lot of miles today. Not sure how many.. 650 or so. Not far now to Des Moines. and then home...... :-)

I will have to watch the Nascar race or rather read the race on the computer.

Good night

by the way...I found my computer cord in Mel's suitcase.
