Visiting family and friends - trekking to Arizona



We have been real busy since the convention and have traveled many miles.  After the convention, we spent a few days in Branson, MO.  I enjoy going there and seeing a few shows.  This time we saw Moses at the Sight and Sound theater.  It was a wonderful show!

I can't find my pictures.


We then went "home" near Savannah to see the family.  Since we sold our house, we parked the RV at Whispering Pines not far from my daughter's home.  We had a fun time with the boys. And, I always have fun with Kelly shopping and eating our "traditional" lunch at Spanky's.   I love the fall, and we were able to take the grandsons to a pumpkin patch. The time together was so much fun.







It was hard to leave.  

We are on our way to Arizona to spend Christmas with our other daughter and family before heading on to the next RV MAPS project.

When we reached Louisiana, we visited with Glenn's nephew and his wife for a short time.  We really enjoyed seeing them.  David and Heather took us out in his boat on the river not far from their house.  




We docked for a cool drink along the way then headed down the river again.



It was a beautiful day.



That evening, we ate a cajun fish place. The food was delicious. Thank you David and Heather for a lovely time.

I have been wanting to see a friend from my high school days when we lived in Electra, TX.  Glenn was so sweet to take a little detour to make that happen.  Gwen and I had not seen each other for 50 years!  For a time, we had lost contact but through FB we connected again.  It just so happens that she lives not far from Waco, TX and if you watch HGTV, you will know that Fixer, Upper is based in Waco.  We had a wonderful time catching up, and we were able to see the sights around Waco.











Gwen and Tommy took us around to see the old beautiful homes in Waco and out to see the Magnolia Farms where Chip and Joanna live.


I can't tell you how much this visit means to me.  Thank you Glenn for letting me see my longtime friend.  Thanks to Gwen and Tommy for the wonderful time you have shown us.  Hopefully next time we can stay longer.
