Lance Camper

We have been talking about downsizing for a few years. So we finally did it. We just bought our Lance Camper in Sac. a few weeks ago. We will now put our fifth wheel on our Az. lot. And enjoy this between there and Wa. state where we have a small home. We have already enjoyed several places where we now fi! We are excited about having the ease of a smaller RV.

Oceanside CA

Our good friends Ken and Chris in their new apt. in Oceanside Ca

Our good friends Ken and Chris are currently living in an apt. in Oceanside. They had been fulltime RV'ers for 11 years and have decided to make a change. We met them in 2002 our first year of retirement. This is what has been so rewarding in RVing, making friends in various places around the country and meeting up again.

What fun camping on the beach at the Oceanside Harbor Marina. I ask you "Doe's it get any better?"

Hemet, CA

We're having a great time here in Hemet, Ca visiting our grandkids. The weather has cooperated which in very good indeed since we are in a small camper now. Top picture me with my Great grandson Rayne, he is 7 months old and a real cutie, a very happy baby.

Here's mom and dad of Rayne. Our grandson Devin and granddaughter-in-law Sara

Great Grandson Rayne age 7 months

And younger brothers to Devin, our too cute grandson's, Adam(9) and Mason(14)

Good friends

Visiting with good friends, Carol and Ron. Yes and again we all seem to enjoy visiting over food. We stopped in a cute little town north of Sac. called Winters. The cafe is Steady Eddie's.

Mendocino Ca

Mendocino is a picturest little town on the northern coast of Ca. A haven for artistic people. And liberal views.
Several waters towers dot the landscape in town

Eureka Ca

We had heard about the Somoa Cookhouse for several years. So this time we made a point of stopping for lunch. This cookhouse was used for the mill workers and they still serve meals family style...all you can eat!














It's a museum within the restaurant. Great pictures and tools line the walls.
Beautiful coastline in northern Ca.

Winchester Bay

Sept 24-Oct 4th. Great times again at Winchester Bay on the coast of Oregon. The Roving Rods sure put on a good rally. The Boomers were certainly well represented, I think there were nine(three at next table).
A few of us gals getting ready to pick crab. The crabs are donated for all,
cooked and picked by volunteers then kept in coolers until distributed for the pot luck cooking.

















Here's one of the two we caught. It was said "not a very good year"

Art projects

Having fun painting. Keeps me off my feet and out of trouble.

A picture to remember!

The unbelievable saga continues. The height of fashion. On the right foot is the oh so stunning large black boot to heal(some day)the pulled tendon. The left now sports a somewhat smaller version as it is so tired from supporting all the weight. The crutches to balance and relieve pressure and then the yes you spotted it. The sexy sports model WHEELCHAIR! It(along with Jim) get me to the pool. The summer of 2009 will be unforgettable!

Grandpa's Camp

We have a Grandma's camp each summer. All five grand kids come for one week. I plan craft projects and other activities to keep us busy. Well this year I am off my feet due to a pulled tendon. So not wanting to cancel , we changed it to Grandpa's week and he took over cooking , cleaning, and water activities. GO GRANDPA! It was a fun week, laying around on the couch, I got to play games and do some crafts which was a nice change from TV and reading. We sure enjoyed another great week with our grand kids.
