Time for change

Wow look at all of that room!! With extra time on my hands the last few days and my golf clubs in the trunk of the Toyota, in Des Moines. I think Sharon threw them in just before she left. Any hows this gave me time to do a project that has been on the back burner for awhile. I remodeled the barn and cleared it out for the new arrival. You know how it is when we shop, our eyes are bigger than the accomadations. By cutting out the NW corner of the loft I was able to pickup another 7' of storage on the north side of the barn.

And now it's time to say farwell to an old friend. It takes with it some fond and not so fond memories. The wonderful times with grand children will always be on top of the fond.

The not so fond, you will have to ask John and Jolyn what it is like to ride out a storm, Or not!

Or ask Brooke how it attracts storms to the Clear Lake area.

Well the bad news is she is going down the road in the morning for the last time. The good news is she is being replaced with a much larger model with a super slideout. The floorplan is on the Puma travel trailer website. It is a model 26-RLSS, Puma by Palomino. The first little popup camper we owned was a Palomino. As you can tell we are excited to make a few new memories.

Oh by the way thanks Kids for sharing your future inheritance with us once again.

week-end in Colorado

We just got back last night from a few days in Colorado, what a neat trip. Paula and Jeremey asked us to go with them, Jeremey toured the Air Force Academy, what nice experience. We were so pleased to be able to go with them, enjoyed the trip, tour and just seeing the snow capped Rockies, what a beautiful sight it was. We also enjoyed seeing Sand Hill Cranes in Nebraska and also Pelicans. They are on their way back up north. Thank you so much Paula and Jeremey for asking us to go with you. We can cross off another intesting visit at a place we have never been. Got back to some pretty nice weather at home, maybe even a little too warm for this time of the year. Hope it doesn't storm!!! Austin and I planted some garden today, it might grow or it might not, but it was worth trying. Just ready to have some fresh home veggies.
