Same ol' same ol'

Well, we weren't back in Indiana two minutes before the weather turned nasty. Had really nasty storms while we were hiding out in Remington, Indiana, at the Caboose Campground. I guess maybe it's a sign we aren't supposed to be here. . . ?? But we are here and in Goshen as of last Monday. We spent the week getting ready for the rally we host here. . . the RV Capital IV Rally to be exact. We hold it at the Elkhart Campground and we had about 25 rigs here. It was very nice, the weather held for us (no snow, thanks to our weather chairman who has redeemed himself since last year's snow fiasco during the rally). I gave the rig a good cleaning before we went over, plus I cleaned most of the house. . . what I had time for anyway. We went over Thursday morning and there were already some rigs there. We had taken a truck load of firewood over earlier in the week to save our spot. We had a steady stream of people coming in Thursday and Friday. It was great to see everyone again and we even met some new people. I was glad when one of the newbies told me that it was everything I had told her it would be. She was afraid she wouldn't feel comfortable meeting so many new people, but that's whats nice about RV'ers. They are just a friendly lot. Besides, she had a Corgi and I told her we all wanted to see her doggie.

We brought Phaeton Place back over to the house along with the car and truck and left early afternoon to go to the woods south of Warsaw where Mom and Dad had arrived the night before. They are camped down at my sister's woods. We visited with them and checked on the new house my sister and husband are building. It will be absolutely beautiful.

We are back to Goshen now and have mowed the yard again. We are trying to keep it mowed when we are here and then having it mowed while we are gone. We are leaving in the morning for central Indiana. Terry has doctor appointments and I have a dentist appointment, a hair appointment, etc. Daughter Jocelyn is flying in on Thursday to Indianapolis so we are picking her up there and bringing her up here to see family, etc.

This next week should prove uneventful. We are going to be here for a few weeks. Son Brandon is flying in the middle of May to Indy, so we will be seeing him then as well. In June we will be returning to Memphis to the acupuncturist and then on to Mississippi for the family reunion and Red Bay, Alabama, for some more coach work.

Till next time. . .

Hey, Arlene,

The house will be gorgeous. Don't know when it will be finished, though.

I'll forward your message to her.
