Kathy"s Brother

Billy was put in the hospital Thursday he was having problems breathing along with panic attracts had to call 911  for transport not enough strength for him to get in car he's in pretty bad shape COPD is real scary so take care of your lungs. Kathy has been staying up there with him at night as his son And great grandson arrived for fathers day and poor bill is in hospital. Its so hard to see him this way I've know him for 33 years and now to see him like this just makes you so sad. Doctors give him a year maybe so this visit makes it so much harder Please pray for him.We will do what we can and while were here so you folks drive safely and hug those you love every chance you get..
     

Paragould AR (Brother in laws house)

We arrived in Kathy's hometown Saturday ahead of the storms (Billy Kathy's brother) is dealing with COPD and has good days and fair days  We will be here till end of June  hopefully he will let me do some things for him like clean up yard and do things he wants done that he can't do himself in general just straighten up yard and garage or work shop. Kathy has family and friends she would like to see and spend time with her brother.. the weather has not been to kind to us but this is the way it is in the summer down south  anyway not much to add for now . So all you fans of my blog hang in there Ill be posting as we move around the east coast., so until later have safe travels,

Branson MO

Well guess who arrived in Branson We arrived yesterday and are parked at the SKP park Turkey Creek. located in Hollister MO about 1 mile from Branson Landing. we have always liked it here sense our first time in 2007. Weather is warm and muggy as anyway in the south. We'll stay here a week maybe longer before heading east to NC to visit granddaughter. Were not sure when that will be more on that down the road I think we will stop in Paragould AR next to see Kathy's brother and sister in law then figure out when and what route we will take to NC. We will go see a few shows while here and in general just relax for a while. Hope all are enjoying your summer plans where ever you are. Safe travels.

leaving El Paso

After visiting our friends (Peggy & Carl)  in Deming for two days They are an elderly couple that we have known for years and were full time RVers for 20 years They are in a apartment for the elderly and each time we see them they get more feeble I fixed a few things while there like the brakes on his walker and a lamp its so hard to see them going down hill,but we all might be there someday. They have wonderful memories of the RV lifestyle. WE arrived in EL Paso to visit Grandson & family on Sat. had a good time for two days very proud to have watched him become a man over the pasted few years.We will leave Monday Morning and stop in Tucumcari  NM for the night and then on to OK city Tuesday Fort Smith Wed. Plan to be in Branson MO Thursday in time for Memorial day weekend. Probably will  stay ther a week or two. Well know a lot of you are on the move so have safe travels.

We got a call from the SKP park(Rovers Roost) in Casa Grande and were offered a lot we drove up there and decided to take it it had two sheds which we had removed already and will need new gravel before we can put it in the reatal pool. will take care of that soon we plan to put a new storage shed on it in the fall and move our stuff up there from Tucson Really don't know how much time we will stay there as we like to spend some time in Yuma also oh well we will see.Kathy will have surgery end of month and will need a couple weeks recoverey time before we head out for the summer.Our Grandson has returned from Guam and will see him soon and our granddaughter was back here for a few days it was good to see here and her boyfriend of six years. we will go see her this summer in NC. anyway hope all you folks are doing good and have safe travels.    

My knee surgery

Been a while since I posted . After setting up in a mid town RV parking spot the 1st of Feb we started the pre knee surgery scheduling . My surgery was on the 24th of Feb and it went very well ,except for the wuzzy patience that Kathy had to take care of.( I owe that special lady) believe me I can become a hand full when things are not going the way I THINK it should. To make a long story short I have been improving everyday and getting around great according to my therapist. This will be short so Kathy and I are doing well and on schedule to leave AZ in late April or early May. so until later Safe Travels.
