Elona Loewen was gracious enough to allow me to stay with her for 5 nights. Elona and I used to go for walks together fairly regularly when we lived a few blocks from each other. We both have missed our long talking walks! It was great staying up late talking and trying to watch a… Continue reading Aug ’19 Visit to Washington – Middle school colleagues
Aug ’19 Visit to Washington – Fab Four
I’m so glad these three lovely ladies made time for us to get together for dinner! If it weren’t for these three, I probably would never have completed a single half marathon, let alone about 25 half marathons, 7 marathons, numerous 5 & 10 K’s, a couple 12K’s and a couple 15K’s! We all joined… Continue reading Aug ’19 Visit to Washington – Fab Four

7-20-19: Our own lease site @ Pio Pico Thousand Trails
Barry and I have been very impressed with how the sales office and management worked to get everything done to make site E53 a great site for us! They started on 6/30/19 by actually digging out the site more to make it longer and leveled it a bit. They also trimmed both of our wonderful… Continue reading 7-20-19: Our own lease site @ Pio Pico Thousand Trails
7-4-19: 4th of July @ Pio Pico

Six months ago I was able to get online and book a full week at the Silver Strand State Beach in the premium front row for us to celebrate Barry’s birthday at the beach!

Lake Havasu City – Jan 2019
We came to Lake Havasu for about a week, not only to check it out, but to connect with a buddy of Barry’s from Boeing – Don Ellington, before heading to the big RV gathering in Quartzsite, AZ. The Lake Havasu Elks Lodge had RV parking and we were able to reserve a spot… Continue reading Lake Havasu City – Jan 2019
Borrego Springs, CA
Barry and I took a drive from Palm Desert to Borrego Springs. We could see the Salton Sea and “Slab City” area, but neither of us had any desire to actually go, and “experience” either of them. YouTube videos were more than enough for me to say, “No, thank you.” For us the draw to… Continue reading Borrego Springs, CA
