Well, here I am again saying "I am so sorry" that I have not kept up with this blog. It seems on the West Coast we just didn't have an internet service very often and it became a hassle to try to post anything.
We are now back in Bridgeport, TX and I will try to do better and post on here.
We saw so many wonderful sites on West Coast and I will try to get some pictures on here soon.
Don't give up on me and I will be seeing you along the "Long and Winding Road"

I know it has been a while since I posted anything on this blog, sorry, the time just seems to get away from me, what with trying to keep up on my journal, taking pictures and keeping up with everyone on Face Book...................remember, I am old!
March 26, 2014(Wednesday): Moving day from Paicines, CA – 45 degrees (a.m.) 61 degrees (high)
To Morgan Hill, CA – 50 degrees (a.m.) 61 degrees (high)
Today we moved from Paicines, CA to Morgan Hill, CA and it was a rainy day, but that is alright because they need the rain so bad here. We didn’t have that far to go and the roads weren’t bad. We arrived at TT Morgan Hill about 11:30 a.m. and got set up on site #189. We drove into town to go to Walgreens to pick up another one of Linda’s prescriptions and then we went to Safeway for some groceries. It rained on & off the rest of the day, so we just relaxed at home.
March 27, 2014(Thursday): TT Morgan Hill –
Morgan Hill, CA -44 degrees (a.m.) 61 degrees (high)
Today we drove back to tow n to find a place for Linda to get her haircut, the Wal-Mart here doesn’t have a hair salon. We found a place (boy did she cut it short, but that is ok – it grows very fast) that was close to the Dollar Tree store that Linda wanted to go to. The rain seems to have stopped for now. We came home and then drove up to the Lodge to work on the computer and Dave started a puzzle (Statue of Liberty) and it is going to be a bear to do. L
March 28, 2014(Friday): TT Morgan Hill – Morgan Hill, CA – 46 degrees (a.m.) 66 degrees (high)
Today is our son, Joe’s 42nd birthday. We drove to Camping World to pick up some things that Dave needed for the RV. While there Linda was walking around looking (she likes to see all of the “cool” new stuff –but we don’t need), one of the clerks was putting new price stickers out and she told Linda that all of the “red sticker” prices were ½ off (so whatever price was on the red sticker – the price would be ½ off that. J WHAT????? Guess what, she found the “Day clock” that Dave has always wanted but was too expensive, so maybe he will know what day it is now. J Then we drove to the 99 Cent Only Store, we love this store, they have a lot of good things. We came home and had lunch and then went to the Lodge for a while. We talked to Joe in the afternoon and we were so happy to hear that Nick, Linda & Nick Jr were coming to Ocala to have a birthday dinner with Joe and his family. Linda walked up to where they were going to show the movie outside this evening “The Book Thief”, Dave stayed home because he would have been too cold to sit outside for the movie. This was a good movie, and the little girl was a very brave little girl, it was just a sad time in history. I actually used my new app (thanks Joe) the Flashlight to walk back home. It was about 57 degrees outside, so just a little chilly, not too many of us stuck around to see the entire movie.
Some of the turkeys here at the Campground
March 29, 2014(Saturday): TT Morgan Hill – Morgan Hill, CA – 50 degrees (a.m.) 62 degrees (high)
Well, it rained all day, a nice steady rain, and they really needed that here Morgan Hill, CA. Dave & I worked on a puzzle at the house and just stayed inside all day. We watched some Harry Potter movies; they were showing all of the movies on TV, with the last 2 showing on Sunday evening.
This morning we went to church at the Morgan Hill UMC, with the Rev. Patrick E. Davis. This little church was built in 1893 and the people were very nice, and the pipe organ was beautiful. Loved the little skit they did before the sermon, the skit was preparation for what the sermon was going to be about. Then we went to Red Robin for lunch and used our gift card. We started home and Dave spotted a Farmers Market, so we stopped and picked up some fruit. We came home and finished the puzzle (which was missing 1 piece) and then we watched the last 2 of the Harry Potter movies.

Well, that is enough for now, I will try to get some pictures from our trip to San Francisco posted as soon as I can.

January 30, 2014(Thursday): Moving day from Las Cruces, NM - 36 (feels like 28 degrees (a.m.) 72 degrees (high) to Silver City, NM – 36 degrees (a.m.) 61 degrees (high)
January 31, 2014(Friday): Rose Valley RV Ranch, Silver City, NM –
47 (feels like 44) degrees (a.m.) 59 degrees (high)
Dave took his
electric cart as far as he could, then left it sitting at the bottom of the
steps. We started walking, just taking
our time, and Dave rested on the benches that were along the trail. We got about ¾ of the way to the Cliff
Dwellings, and Dave said he couldn’t go any further, his legs were burning, so I left him on the bench resting and walked on to the Cliff Dwellings.
You
could walk up the steps, and walk through the caves and see the rooms that were
used by the Mogollon people.
After walking through the 5-6 caves, I then had to come down a
ladder :( (I do not like coming down ladders) to get down to the bottom level, and I heard someone tell me to be careful, and it was Dave. He had made it the rest of the way up. So happy
that he made it there to see the Cliff Dwellings. We talked to another couple for awhile, and then started
the mile hike back down the trail (much easier), and made it back to the car and had ourselves a little picnic
(we had taken our picnic basket with bread, peanut butter and chips).
We drove to the Visitor Center and walked through the little museum there, and
then watched a short movie on the Mogollon people. When we came out of the movie, there were Mike
& Shelia just getting there. They were going to watch the movie and then go see the
Cliff Dwellings. They were going back
the way we came so they could stop at the Buckhorn Steakhouse. We
were going back another way, Route 35, which was a much better drive and no snow. :)
The Memory Lane
Cemetery that was next door to Rose Valley RV Ranch (I didn’t get a chance to go over there) is an old cemetery, and Billy the Kidd’s mother is supposed to be buried there.
February 1, 2014(Saturday): Moving day from Silver City, NM – 41 (feels like 32) degrees (a.m.) to Willcox, AZ – 46 (feels like 40) degrees (a.m.) 52 degrees (high)
Well, that is about it for now, hope everyone is staying warm (since this cold weather has not left anyone out)
So until the next time………………………….
Keep the Faith………………………Keep Smiling and
Keep A Song In Your Heart.

I am so sorry that I have not kept up with this blog as I should, but we have had a few distractions. I will try to do better, for the few that follow this. :-)
I just wish I could figure out why I can't post pictures anymore. I will try to work on that matter.
Hope that everyone is doing well.
We are now back on the road and in Las Cruces, NM and heading to Silver City, NM tomorrow.
Take care and I will be back soon.

Hi,
Well, I am only a couple of days late.....................
so here goes:
January 12, 2014(Sunday): Lewisville Lake CG – Lewisville,
TX – 46 degrees (a.m.) 71 degrees (high)
This morning we stopped and picked up some donuts, and
took them to Laura’s. We all went to church at Flower Mound UMC, and then came home. The plumber came by Laura’s house to fix the
closet doors that they broke while working on the plumbing
before Christmas. We relaxed most of the
day, and then we went to Red Hot and Blue BBQ for dinner.
This morning we went to Laura’s. Laura and I ran
some errands, and then later in the day we went to have her blood drawn.
Dave & I went to Wal-Mart. Dave did some shopping, and I got a haircut; boy, was it time. J
January 14, 2014(Tuesday): Lewisville Lake CG – Lewisville, TX – 36 degrees (a.m.) 63 degrees (high)
This morning, I defrosted the refrigerator before
leaving for Laura’s. I did some
laundry, and went with Laura to Wal-Mart and some other places looking for a
Medic Alert Bracelet (to let emergency personnel know that she is on blood thinners). Bobby delivered some of the sectional couch
that Tim and Laura are buying from him (maybe). Several of us were having problems with allergies from
the cat hair on the couch (even though we vacuumed it real good), so Laura sprayed it with Febreze Allergy. We will see
how Matthew (especially) does with it over the next few days.
Today was a day for having blood drawn, and later they
called Laura and told her to stay on the 8.5 mg of Coumadin. I worked on the computer for a little while trying to
catch up some things. Later, we cleaned
in the house a little before the Realtor comes tomorrow to give Tim and Laura some
pointers on what to do and not do before putting the house up for sale.
I did some laundry and then went with Laura and
Matthew to the dentist for Matthew’s appointment. Later in the day, the Realtor came and looked
around. Just a quiet day for all of us.
January 17, 2014(Friday): Lewisville Lake CG – Lewisville, TX – 44 degrees (a.m.) 57 degrees (high)
This morning we drove to Laura’s, and I stayed there. Dave drove to Bobby’s house to work on some things. Tim and Laura went to the hospital for her MRA. Later in the afternoon, Laura and I went to Texas Oncology for her blood to be tested. It was 2.2 today so they told her to
stay on the same dosage. Dave came back, and then we all went to Red Robin (they were so crowded), so we went to Chili’s
instead for dinner. After dinner, we came
on home and they went home.
This morning we went to Laura’s, and then Dave went on to
Bobby’s house to work on some more things. Laura said she was sick, and throwing up last night; not sure what made
her sick. I changed the bed sheets
and did some laundry. Tim and Alyson went to work, and Matthew went to spend the
night with his friend. Laura is just
resting, she still gets tired very easy.
Well, that is our week; hope your week has been good. Dave & I are here for support and doing what we can. Thank you all for your prayers for Laura.
So until the next time………………………….
Keep the Faith………………………

Hi everyone,
Hope this last week has been kind to you and that your New Year has gotten off to a great start and that you always keep God the center of your life. Here is what we have been doing:
January 5, 2014(Sunday): Lewisville Lake CG – Lewisville, TX – 31 degrees (a.m.) 37 degrees (high)
This morning we met Tim, Laura, Alyson & Matthew at church (Flower Mound UMC) for the 9:30 a.m. service. Then we went to lunch at Culver’s and then came home and Laura rested a little while and then Laura, Dave & I went to IKEA and then came back to the house. I wanted to watch “Downton Abbey” but it would have been too late for us to stay at Laura’s and we don’t get local channels at the RV. I will have catch up later.
January 6, 2014(Monday): Lewisville Lake CG - Lewisville, TX – 17 degrees (a.m.) 30 degrees (high)
This morning the temperature was 17 (feels like 4 - now that is COLD) then we drove to Laura’s and Dave fixed breakfast for who wanted breakfast. Laura and I left to go to the doctor’s office so Laura could have her blood drawn and tested to see what her Coumadin level is so she will know how much medication to take this evening. I talked to Betty Jo (my sister) for her birthday today.
January 7, 2014(Tuesday): Lewisville Lake CG - Lewisville, TX – 25 degrees (a.m.) 47 degrees (high)
This morning the temperature was 25 (feels like 16) then we drove to Laura’s and I did some laundry. I drove Laura to the bank and then to the “Nothing bundt cakes” (oh my, the little cakes are so wonderful). We came home and relaxed and worked on the computer. When we went home this evening we found that the water at the spigot was frozen, later it thawed out and we had water again. Bobby called and said he had to head to Houston early in the morning and wanted to know if we could come and take Haley to school by 7:30 a.m.
January 8, 2014(Wednesday): Lewisville Lake CG - Lewisville, TX – 41 degrees (a.m.) 46 degrees (high)
This morning we left early to go to Bobby’s and pick up Haley and take her to school. Then we drove to Denton to go to the Camping World to pick up a few things we needed. Then we went to Laura’s and Dave and Laura went to the grocery store. Later in the afternoon I took Laura to see the hematologist so she could get an appointment for her next MRI to see if the blood clot is gone and to have her Coumadin levels.
January 9, 2014(Thursday): Lewisville Lake CG – Lewisville, TX – 42 degrees (a.m.) 52 degrees (high)
Today we drove to Laura’s and Dave fixed breakfast for who wanted to have breakfast and later, Laura and I drove to Grapevine, TX to meet my classmate, Sharon, from WV, at the Olive Garden. Sharon and I had a great time catching up and before we knew it we had been there over 2 /12 hours, so happy that Laura was able to join us (probably wasn’t much fun for her J). Laura and I ran some errands on our way home. Dave & I drove back to the campground to take care of dumping in the RV and then went back to Laura’s and we started taking her Christmas tree down and storing the items so they will be ready for their move later this year.
January 10, 2014(Friday): Lewisville Lake CG – Lewisville, TX – 53 degrees (a.m.) 66 degrees (high)
This morning we drove to Laura’s for a little while and then Dave & I drove to Southlake, TX so I could have my mammogram done and Laura went to lunch with a friend of hers and then to have her blood tested. I did some laundry and then Dave, Tim, Laura & I went to Outback for dinner (we had a gift card that we had to use because it was dated), then we went home and I got some things caught up on at the RV.
January11, 2014(Saturday): Lewisville Lake CG – Lewisville, TX – 42 degrees (a.m.) 66 degrees (high)
This morning we went to Laura’s and Dave fixed breakfast and I did some laundry. Tim had the Scouts in the garage building their Pinewood Derby cars. Laura & I worked in the house cleaning up a little. Dave worked on the computer for a while. Tim and Alyson went to work and I cleaned up the kitchen a little and then we went home.
Well, that about does it for us, praying that this week will be a good week for everyone.
So until the next time…………………………

October 8, 2013 (Tuesday) Our temperatures have ranged from 40 degrees in the a.m. to 104+ degrees in the p.m. - and we have been in Texas, New Mexico and now Arizona.
WOW! WOW! I can't believe that it has been almost 2 1/2 months since my last post, and I am so SORRY :-(
Well, since my last post we have helped our son Bobby and his daughter Haley to move to their new home and said our "good-bye's" to the old house in Royse City, TX. We helped get things set up in the new home as much as we could. On September 12th we moved the RV to Lewisville Lake Campground in Lewisville, TX so that we could spend some time with our daughter, Laura and her family. Matthew came to the RV and spent a couple of nights with us and Dave and Matthew had a lot of fun playing games and working a puzzle of the United States. Matthew taught Dave how to play Backgammon and Dave taught Matthew how to play checkers. It was fun listening to them. :-) Then on Sept 17th we moved the RV to Bridgeport, TX and spend a couple of days doing nothing at Bay Landing. I wanted to post some pictures but for some reason it won't let me anymore...................I will have to check that out, so I am so sorry, no pictures.
When we left Bridgeport, TX we drove to Post, TX and spent 2 nights and then on to Clovis, NM.......................well now that campground (a Good Sam Park) was close to a train hub and we heard trains ALL night (not much sleep) we spent 2 nights there and then we drove on to Mountainair, NM on September 23rd and then on September 25th on to Grants, NM for 2 nights. While we were there we took a tour of the Salinas Pueblo Missions. Then on September 27th we were supposed to move to Holbrook, AZ and spend one night, but the weather was getting cold and the temperature was going to be a low of 27 degrees, (our Grey Lady, the RV, doesn't like those temps - neither does Dave :-)) so we drove onto Cottonwood, AZ (a long day for us, but we stopped several times along the way). We have been here at TT Verde Valley RV Resort and Campground since September 27th and we will be here until October 16th.
We had to drive into Prescott, AZ on September 30th so that Dave could have blood work done at the lab and get his prescription refilled. That was an all day trip, we drove over the Mingus Mountains and that was some wild ride, however a beautiful scenic drive.
We drove into Sedona one day and drove around looking at all of the Red Rock Mountains, we stopped and had a picnic lunch and the I hiked to the Cathedral Rock to get some pictures, Dave's electric cart couldn't go all the way. Dave did find the Bakery that has the Cranberry/Walnut bread that he likes. Wish I could post some pictures on here.
On Sunday Oct 6th after church we drove to Black Canyon City, AZ to Rock Springs Cafe' and met our nephew and his wife and her mother (they drove from Chandler, AZ) for lunch and had a great visit. The Cafe' is famous for their pies and they were WONDERFUL!
Our neighbors here at the campground, Doug & Terri were from Riverside, CA so they were able to tell us some things about CA. (Doug hope you found the blog alright) We enjoyed having them for neighbors, hope to catch up with them again one day.
Well, I guess that brings me update for now anyway. So, each of you take care and check back soon and see if I have been able to post some pictures.
Until next time.............................
Love, Linda

I wanted to post some pictures but for some reason it won't let me anymore...................I will have to check that out, so I am so sorry, no pictures.
When we left Bridgeport, TX we drove to Post, TX and spent 2 nights and then on to Clovis, NM.......................well now that campground (a Good Sam Park) was close to a train hub and we heard trains ALL night (not much sleep) we spent 2 nights there and then we drove on to Mountainair, NM on September 23rd and then on September 25th on to Grants, NM for 2 nights. While we were there we took a tour of the Salinas Pueblo Missions. Then on September 27th we were supposed to move to Holbrook, AZ and spend one night, but the weather was getting cold and the temperature was going to be a low of 27 degrees, (our Grey Lady, the RV, doesn't like those temps - neither does Dave :-)) so we drove onto Cottonwood, AZ (a long day for us, but we stopped several times along the way). We have been here at TT Verde Valley RV Resort and Campground since September 27th and we will be here until October 16th.
We had to drive into Prescott, AZ on September 30th so that Dave could have blood work done at the lab and get his prescription refilled. That was an all day trip, we drove over the Mingus Mountains and that was some wild ride, however a beautiful scenic drive.
We drove into Sedona one day and drove around looking at all of the Red Rock Mountains, we stopped and had a picnic lunch and the I hiked to the Cathedral Rock to get some pictures, Dave's electric cart couldn't go all the way. Dave did find the Bakery that has the Cranberry/Walnut bread that he likes. Wish I could post some pictures on here.
On Sunday Oct 6th after church we drove to Black Canyon City, AZ to Rock Springs Cafe' and met our nephew and his wife and her mother (they drove from Chandler, AZ) for lunch and had a great visit. The Cafe' is famous for their pies and they were WONDERFUL!
Our neighbors here at the campground, Doug & Terri were from Riverside, CA so they were able to tell us some things about CA. (Doug hope you found the blog alright) We enjoyed having them for neighbors, hope to catch up with them again one day.
Well, I guess that brings me update for now anyway. So, each of you take care and check back soon and see if I have been able to post some pictures.
Until next time.............................
Love, Linda
