Family Dinner

Yesterday we took our family to Red Lobster for dinner.

How do you like the hat I knitted for our great-granddaughter?  Actually matched the dress she was wearing.

Grandpa had fun tickling Zoey Jane and seeing her reaction.

We had a nice “goodbye” dinner as we planned to leave this morning.  However, they are expecting winds of 50-60 MPH so we’ll just stay put another day and take off tomorrow.

Remember, you are loved.

Gathering of the 2007 Clan

As you’ve heard me tell before, we are part of the “graduating class of 2007”.  This means we are members of Escapees RV Club and we are part of the group who went fulltime RVing in 2007.

This particular “year” of graduates have stayed close together.  We seek each other out when we are on the road and are within 200 miles of each other.  We’ll drive that far just to see each other and go out to lunch and visit for a couple of hours….we’ve done that a number of times.

So when we heard a number of “classmates” were attending the Balloon Fiesta this year we wanted to make an effort to go see them.

Marty Cassidy Oct 2013While in Espanola we heard Marty was in town…not going to the Balloon Fiesta but passing through….so we connected and went to visit. We agreed to move the next day to the RV park at Hollywood Casino in San Felipe, NM (half way between Santa Fe and Albuquerque) and to visit our classmates at the Balloon Fiesta.

So Monday after moving and setting up we all went out to see our friends and the rest of the Boomers (a social sub-group of Escapees RV Club) who always attend the Balloon Fiesta as a group.

Here is the Class of 2007

We enjoyed the happy hour and talking with all our friends, then we participated in their potluck

It was great to be around so many of our friends at the same time.  We know we will see each other on the road again in the future.

Remember, you are loved.
