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!

TOO MUCH RUNNING AROUND!!!

Running Around:
The last couple of days have been nothing but running errands! Gosh, it seems like that's all we have done since we got back from southern Ohio. We had to go get prescriptions, groceries, and more plumbing supplies. Now ya know that we couldn't do all that at once, we had to spread it out, and it seems like I haven't got much else done the last 3 days. I finally called a stop to it and said we could do the rest some time next week. Kara (our oldest Granddaughter) is spending the weekend with us so she will be over tomorrow afternoon. So I have to get some things done so I can spend time doing stuff with her. I want to get our bed changed, and some more things put away, since the bathroom is done. All we need for the bathroom is a wall for privacy! LOL! Mike is planning on getting that taken care of this weekend, after I said I was going to hang a sheet up haha! The bathroom is open to the living room, so you are out in front of everybody when you use it. Nothing like playing show and tell LOL! Maybe one of these days we'll be done living out of boxes! Seriously things are coming along well, but I think I'm working Mike too hard. He has to take 2 days off, because of his back for everyday that he works, to recoup and give his back a rest! He sure doesn't want to have anymore back surgery. We have the plumbing now to do the kitchen sink, so that's on the agenda after the bathroom wall. The weather is supposed to be in the 40's for the next week, so that's a plus. I don't know what the low is going to be, but at this rate 40's sounds WARM to us! I'll feel better once we have a kitchen sink, so I can actually do dishes anytime I want! After that is a stove, and then things will move alot faster. I'm hoping that Mike can run the gas lines at the same time as that he runs the plumbing for the kitchen sink, but we'll see. I'm not a very good judge of the difficulty of doing two things like that at once sometimes. Sometimes I expect too much and get too impatient waiting for things to get done that I can't do.

Doggies and Birdies:
The dogs, Hannah, Dutchess and Clover have all gotten baths and their monthly flea spot medication. So that is taken care of for another month. Now I have to get the bird cages cleaned, and then I can start all over! LOL! Jake my Amazon parrot, has now learned how to call Clover, so now he calls all 3 dogs. They don't pay a bit of attention to him though. He has just heard us call them back in from outside so much, that he does it too now. Well I have to get something done today, so the day isn't a total loss so I'd better go put a load of wash in. I'll see ya all Over the Rainbow, somewhere...
