Day 14-Fun in the Mountains

Day 14

Today was simply beautiful. I wish we could stay here for longer. The weather is perfect. Joe and I are a little puny. Both have the D and I still have a headache. Assuming it’s still caffeine withdrawal. Trying to drink a lot of water. But we are blessed and are going about our business. When I got up, Moe and I took a walk around the campground. Though the trailers are close, people are nice and the campground is beautiful. I love the river that runs right through the campsites.

Moe liked it too. We then went to the dog park. He did have a run with a big lab/bull dog mix. After that all Mooshoo wanted to do was hump Moe. Moe was having none of that. We then continued our walk and was getting ready to cross a little metal bridge. Moe would have nothing to do with it. Try as I might he just sat and refused to go. He is quite strong. So had to go back around. During this time Joe was doing his laundry. After that we took a trolley to town. Pretty neat that it is free. You just call and ask to be picked up. They drop you off where you want to go and then you call them to be picked up. I asked how it could be free. She says they got a grant and the city and the businesses made a deal that they would get part of the lodging tax to enable visitors to ride for free. We wanted to get lunch so we ended up eating at the ski resort . I felt like I was in a little Swiss town. It was beautiful. Then I went to a shop to get stuff for the grands. Still can’t find an otter. After we went back and rested. Joe’s having a little hard time adjusting to the altitude. Where we are us about 8700 ft. Again no air conditioning for the night. Supposed to get down to 37-40. Tomorrow on to Winslow, Arizona.(what a fine sight to see...the Eagles)

    Will you need an extra trailer for all the gifts for the grands? Asking for a friend.

Day 8 Fun with family

Day 8 Joe informed me that my days were off by one. Oh well, I’ve told you everything I needed to say so I’m continuing with the day I’m on.😊 Today was a fun day with family. Went over to Chuck and Marilyn’s house for breakfast . She’s such a good cook. We had fruit, quiche, and blueberry muffins. Delicious. They have remodeled their house since we were here last. Looks beautiful. My niece and her family came over for lunch. It was great seeing my niece Brandi, and my great niece Margaret. We were also celebrating Brandon’s ((Brandi’s husband) birthday. Marilyn cooked a shrimp boil. Have never had that. You put a lot of things together in a pot and cook. She had corn on the cob, shrimp, sausage, potatoes, and onions. It was very good. Then time for luscious desserts. My great niece made homemade key lime pie, my favorite. Brandon made a homemade blackberry pie. Ice cream and brownies as well. Needless to say I only had a small salad for dinner. In the middle of all this eating ...

Day 27...Yellowstone

Day 27-Yellowstone  Day 27- Yellowstone Well we have no cell or internet so I haven’t been able to post this in a timely manner. Hopefully, we’ll find someplace tomorrow with good cell service or wi-fi. So today was full of adventure . We woke up early to head out to see the sight. The first place we visited was the West Thumb Geyser Basin. What a sight to behold. All this places in the ground with bubbling water/mud . It is so unreal to think about all that’s going on below the service. Got good pictures. Our purpose today was to see critters. Supposedly they are to be found in the Hayden Valley and the Lamar Valley. Hayden is known for its bison and Lamar is known for grizzlies, bears, wolves and other critters. We were not disappointed in Hayden . We saw all kinds of buffalo and got some decent pictures. We also went to the Mud Volcano and it is as it’s name implies. Hot, hot bu...

Day 16 Standing on the Corner

Day 16 Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers in FB land. Hope you all had a great day. Joe and I had a different and fun celebration. We are staying in Homolovi State Park which is Hopi Indian land. There are two main archeological sites. Currently there are not digs going on but we hiked to two of the sites. They have uncovered  two Pueblo’s  (villages) which were fascinating. They have uncovered several rooms and even a kiva (religious room). There were plenty of pottery shards that have been found. There have been vandals here so now it’s a crime to take stuff. There are signs all over the place. Anyway, between the 2 hikes we probably walked a mile or so. It was hot and we were climbing up on a Mesa so we were winded. I have been drinking lots of water so I think i’m doing better with regards to dehydration. After the hikes, we went to downtown Winslow and got pictures at the “Standing On The Corn...
