    On a sad note we lost our long time  ( almost 14 yrs ) family dog Cody …..

Picture 023                              He helped train our cockapoo , Monty and protected and loved us all….. he’ll be remembered  and missed……..

            I’ve had a few motorcycles in the past and during our last winter trip we met new friends , Dan & Tricia …they have a nice fifth wheel and Dan fitted his truck to carry his Harley on their travels. Being on a  “ fixed income “ I couldn’t afford a Harley so I got a used 2007, 1100 Yamaha

   Then , we ( I say we so it looks like Sharon thought all this was a good idea )   then had  to trade the Vibe in for a truck to carry the bike and pull behind the RV ……..

        Its a 2005 Dakota  ( 19,000 miles ) four wheel drive and flat towable ………..as soon as “we’ get  ramps ,and a couple other accessories  we’ll be ready for 2011 winter trip to the west and south again for the winter months …..

     I was able to work camp here this year …..its been fun and also a challenge at times…..The owners Don and Barb Anderson are young and hard workers…..they’ve brought  the camp from a state of disrepair to where it is now and have wonderful plans for the future…….Dons taught me a bunch of new skills including honey wagon operations . Which  at first sounds sweet and and probably fun…..well it is neither……. SMILE …..here is some pictures of Sharon and I at work :

OK … that's not me plowing …but it is a neat shot….

Our son Paul along with his wife Laura and baby Kaylee came for a few days ………

 

Some shots of friends and just having fun :
