First Official Rally Day
Today was the first ‘official’ day of the Oklahoma Chapter rally here in Oklahoma City. We kinda stayed in the house in the morning (it’s flippin’ HOT out there!) but Michael did go out and join a small crowd gathered over at Jay & Stella’s to watch two guys install new springs on their coach. … Continue reading

Braum’s Factory Tour…Yum!
First thing Tuesday morning we had a knock at the door and our friend Gus F and his pups (Romeo & Juliet) were there. This was actually the first time we’d met Gus in person…although we’ve been friends on Facebook for several years. Sure was nice to meet in person! We chatted for a while … Continue reading

Travel Day: Mt. Ida, AR To Oklahoma City, OK
Our goal was to pull out of our site about 8:30 am and we ended up pulling out before 8:30. It was a bit of a tight squeeze but Mikey did an excellent job and we came out unscathed. Next was dealing with the awkward dump station that’s on the opposite side of the road … Continue reading

Indians and Watermelon
On our way to Mike’s mom’s house (one of many routes we’ve taken between our place and hers) we pass through the itty bitty town of Caddo Gap. Caddo Gap has a population of less than 100 and is easily missed if you blink while driving down highway 8 between Norman and Glenwood. At the … Continue reading

Lum & Abner and Queen Wilhelmina
**Remember if you click on a picture the picture will open in a larger window for better viewing! Tuesday, 9/12 I’m not quite old enough to remember to listening to Lum & Abner on the radio…but I do remember hearing of them. Lum and Abner was a comedy radio show that aired from 1931 to … Continue reading

Lots of Visiting & a Class Get Together
Saturday 9/9 We spent the afternoon visiting with Alice at her home. Michael’s oldest brother, Eddie, and his wife, Val, came over for a short while to visit. The boys behaved themselves and left politics, religion and any other taboo subject off the table and actually had a very nice visit! Michael put together a … Continue reading

What a Day! Yuck!
The day started out nicely…and then took turn and crashed and burned! Not a day either of us want to repeat anytime soon. We went to the commissary on Little Rock Air Force Base…about 13 or so miles Northwest of Camp Robinson this morning and then took them home, dropped em off and headed back … Continue reading

Back to School…
We visited Little Rock Central High School today. It’s actually a National Historic Site with a visitors center and everything! You can register to take a tour led by a park ranger that takes you into the historic high school built in 1927, which is still an active high school today with a student body … Continue reading

Travel Day: Scott AFB, IL To Camp Robinson, AR
Tuesday 9/5/17 About 8:00 pm last night we got a pretty good little rain storm. It came down pretty hard for quite a while and few times we thought we were getting some hail. Still not 100% sure it wasn’t just stuff fall off the trees. It rained so heavy that when I pulled in … Continue reading

White Haven & Sweetie Pies
Sunday, September 3rd. Our one and only sight-seeing day in this area. We left home about 11:00 am as we were only visiting one place and then having lupper out. The drive took us over the Mississippi River, by the Arch and past downtown St. Louis. The U.S. Grant National Historic Site is roughly 13 … Continue reading
