LOVE TUCSON !!!!


Yesterday was such FUN!! You can see who is having the MOST fun. haha.
We spent the day in Tucson at their 4th Annual Artsy-whatever festival. It was about 20 city blocks long and elbow-to-elbow people. Worse than the Sturgis Rally!! But the weather was incredible. 70* and no wind.

The Tucson skyline was so beautiful on the way home and there was a full moon. We both LOVE Tucson. Good thing we are only 40 miles away in Benson.

God bless each of you and thank you for keeping up with us!!! THAT makes us SMILE and feel good! xoxo

Russian Mountain Dog!!



Today we met a Russian Mountain Dog. He is three years old and weighs 180# !! Apparently they were not allowed outside of Russia until very recently and are rarely found in the U.S. This one's name is "Nat" which is short for some long, I-can't-remember-pedigree name. The family lives in British Columbia and are farmers. Nat is the guard dog for the livestock as well as the family home. COOL!!! He was super friendly but the owner said when he's on his turf, he stops ANY potential intruders. I bet he works well for solicitors too!!!!

The Safeway store is right next door to our RV Resort and is a very nice store.

This afternoon we went for an ice cream cone at a little place in downtown Benson. I had a butterscotch "dip cone," and couldn't eat the whole thing!!

Then I prepared a package for Ted Bundy, got on my bicycle and rode to the post office to mail it. Oh..... yeah..... the post office is across the street. :)

Now it's getting chillier and a hoody is a necessity!!

Grateful to the Lord for many things today. Even while missing grandchildren, there are many things to be grateful for. :)

Wednesday morning... SUNSHINE!!!

It's Wednesday morning, the sun is shining and we are smiling, in spite of having to DEFROST the windshield this morning!! Had the best night's sleep YET at Walmart's parking lot!!!

Today we will go to Tucson and have our RV satellite tweaked.

You ought to see DB drive that RV! He flipped a u-turn in the middle of the road in front of an oncoming bus and got us turned around, it was beautiful!!!!! He ram-rods that thing with complete confidence. Love it!

We are sitting at Denny's drinking what tastes like the finest cup of coffee I've ever had....... And will be on the road shortly.

LOVE LOVE LOVE all our kids! You know who you are, and if your ears are ringing lots, it's because you all are our favorite topic it seems!!!

Tuesday night...."...

Made it to El Paso, TX !!

Parked at Walmart .... Yes, I realize we now are the dip parking lot RV'ers....... But we are only going to be here tonight!!

Tomorrow (Wednesday), we will go to Tucson

Changing Routes!

After driving through this FRIGID weather as we've left the Ft. Worth area, we decided to take I-20 all the way to I-10 and go to El Paso and/or Anthiny, NM. It is so cold here!!! Snow on both sides of roadway, on vehicles and getting colder.

Boo!!!!!

Tuesday, Dec. 6 route........

Hi!!

We are planning on leaving Granbury, TX in the morning and heading to Carlsbad, NM. The weather isn't great ANYWHERE it seems, between here and California!! Our satellite is down for some reason and we are hoping to get to a 'Camping World' along the way, to have it serviced.

We've had a truly wonderful, memorable time here !!!

We've visited my brother John and his wife Martha and their two fantastic dogs, Tug and Rosie; nieces Dawn and Mandy and their families; nephew Ryan and his family; and even got to visit son, John, yesterday as he is here on business. It was a great, great BONUS!! We have had had lots of tears and laughs..... Including the excitement of attending TD Jakes' church on Sunday. As if that wasn't enough to make me feel like I needed an oxygen mask, It was a really fun surprise to see, in the same service, Oprah, Gayle King and Tyler Perry!!

Thanks to John and Martha, tonight, for the first time, DB and I had Ben & Jerry's ice cream!!!

Texas has been fun and eventful!!

Looking forward to tomorrow and thanking God for everything.

God bless you, and we pray always, missing all of you that we love so much.
