I'ts been a Quick Week For Us!

Week:
   This week flew by for us. When ya have kids everyday, but one, ya don't get much done. That is okay with me though, because one day they'll be grown up enough, and won't need to stay with Gma and Gpa. I'll take it while I can get it, cause everything else can wait, nothing is more important right now. I can already see it happening with Kara. She is always busy with her friends now that she is 13.  It is a quick Hi and Bye when she is over with her Dad. It makes me a little sad. On the other hand I can see it is good for them to grow as a person and be with friends. It is a good / bad feeling for me. I am proud of them growing up, but I still want them to be little. It seems like just yesterday they were babies. But, as our 9 year old Grand Daughter, Tehya told us, " Life Goes On"! That doesn't mean that I don't miss and cherish all the times they were with us. It will just be different now that they are getting older.

Next Month:
   In August we're going to be making some plans to go on a few trips. We both want to go back to Holmes county in Amish country here in Ohio. We stay in a campground in Berlin, Ohio right in the heart of Amish country. It is so peaceful up there! Then we are going to be spending a week at Alum creek state park in Columbus, and where ever else strikes our fancy.  We really haven't been able to go very many places this year, and we have a serious case of hitch itch. It will be easier to go places after school starts in August, cos only Charli will need a sitter then. I enjoy Fall rving too, cos it is still warm during the days and good sleeping weather at night.
   Now that our dogs have had their first maiden rv trip and did pretty well, we can do more trips without worrying so much about how they're going to act. They didn't totally embarrass us the the last time. In fact I thought they were pretty good, and I don't think we provided too much campground comedy for the other Rvers! Lol! We hope not any way! Haha!
   I'd love to plan a Winter trip, say maybe February through the middle of April. Somewhere warm, if there is such a place left!  That will depend whether or not the lawsuit from our 2011 accident is settled by then. We have to have a court date by November, so we couldn't go anywhere before January or February, and not at all if it isn't settled. That was the reason we paid the other truck off in October of 2011 so we'd have extra money to play with in our full timing budget. Then Bam! no more truck, thanks to a person running a red light in November at  the rate of at least 55 mph. So that kind put a stop to our full time plans as we had to buy another truck, and then got a hefty payment to go along with it! So we've been stuck and have just been doing summer trips since then in Ohio, and around the neighboring states.

Stay Tuned:
   So please stay tuned to see what kind of plans we can make, and if we can get any reservations confirmed for August. I really would like to go to Hocking Hills state park here in Ohio, too.  So we'll be talking about places we want to go for a visit, the next few months. So until then, I'll be seein' ya's ...
