About US

This the story of our journey, Into Something Good, going Somewhere Over the Rainbow, and trying to Hold Onto Our Dreams. How we got on the way to becoming HALF time RVers! Our Ford 350 super duty diesel truck is our horses, we call it the Beast . Our 2008 34'7" 3 slide Cedar Creek Silverback fifth wheel is our Prairie Schooner Wagon,we call it the Bear. Just like the first RVers, the Pioneers of Yesteryear traveling around the country searching for a rich full filling life! Come along with us for the ride and read about our triumphs and mishaps along the way! About to be Part time RVers in a Cedar Creek Silverback 2008, 34'7", 3 slide 5th wheel, which is our Prairie Schooner Wagon, and a 2006 Ford 350 super duty 1 ton diesel truck is our horses, or oxen, only we have to feed it diesel instead of grass, and oats, which costs a lot more! Retired Air Force empty nesters off to see the good ole USA! Favorite Quote: "Life is a Blank Canvas, Made For Me to Add the Colors" Goal: I am trying to add as many colors as I can to my life!

SORRY FOR THE ABSENCE

Hello Readers:
Sorry, that I have been absent for the last 5 days. I have been upset about having to push back our departure date until February! So since I didn't have anything to say that wasn't depressing or complaining I just stayed off of here. I may still complain a bit, but not as much as I would have! LOL! I don't think this is the place for the gloom and doom like I was feeling, so it was better that I didn't write.

Goings On:
Lets see what has been going on since I last wrote? Mike has almost all the plumbing lines ran in the apartment, except for the kitchen sink. Next will be the natural gas lines for heat and the kitchen stove. The camode is installed, with the water turned off at the moment until he puts the bathroom sink in, and I want a new shower stall from Santa! LOL! So we don't have to go into the house to take our showers. I don't think that Santa's sleigh will hold a shower stall like is in the fiver though! Haha! I hope our bathroom is up and running by Christmas. I have the apartment size refrigerate that my friend, Sue gave us, and I am getting that cleaned up a little at a time. It was sitting in her back yard all summer, so I have to use bleach to get the mildew off the door seals. Bleach and asthma do not mix so I have to do a little bit at a time. So now you are updated on the apartment.

Christmas Shopping:
My Christmas shopping is almost DONE!!! Just our daughter in laws to buy for, and some stocking stuffer's for the G Kids. I have to confess I ordered most of the things for the G Kids online, so I have only been shopping for Christmas gifts twice. That was definitely the way to go. I'm only waiting on one item and it should be delivered tomorrow. Now I just have to wrap it, and I want to get that done this weekend. I am going to use the fiver to wrap them, because I don't have to worry about any of them coming in, and seeing things. Mike is going to get one of the propane tanks filled so I have heat out in the fiver, and the apartment is to messed up right now to wrap the gifts in here. After I get the gifts wrapped, we can bring the slides in for the next 2 months. Well we could move the slides in now, but it just will be easier with them out to get everything in and out. Then I'm going to put a BIG red bow on the fiver! It's hard to believe that we have had it almost a year. It will be a year in March! Come on February! I cannot wait to get to someplace warmer! My arthritis tells me about the cold, wet, damp Ohio weather everyday! My knee, dare I say is doing better, and I only use my crutch when I go out of the house, and I have been just putting it in my cart at the stores and walking without it! So the steroid shot has really helped it and I only limp towards bedtime, when my leg gets tired, but you did not hear me say anything about it being better! LOL!

Doctor Appointment:
I have a Dr appointment this afternoon, so I should get ready for that now. I was in chat at the RV Dreams chat room for a while last night. I hope to get in there more often from now on. So until then, see ya when I see ya, soon...
