Enroute to Texas




OK so quick "catch up" on our travels as I have been so BAD at posting and keeping up on the Blog.  Sorry :>(((
Paducah Illinois WalMart was a quick one night stop so I could check out the National Quilt Museum.  Beautiful quilts on display, but they wouldn't allow any pictures.  So you will never be able to view any of my quilts on display, but I can always dream and keep practicing.  We took a quick stop at the George W Bush Presidential Library in Dallas.  Duplicate Oval Office - Randy tried out the desk.  "President Randy and First Lady Lonna"  Im thinking about changing Lincoln's bedroom to a Craft room??? Naaah
Our trip took us through Texas Hill Country and a Beaver rally in Kerrville Texas, were we became the Region 3 National Director for the Beaver Ambassador Club.  Our duties are to encourage and organize RV rallies in our Region and represent the Midwest and Canada at Semi-annual meetings.  Sounds important but really just doing what we are doing and organizing rallies.  We have a Rally scheduled in May 2015 in Great Falls Montana and followed by a rally in Calgary Alberta that we are hosting before we continue on to Alaska.  Maybe have a few extras play follow the leader and take the trek to Alaska with us?!?!


We then headed to Florida for our winter quarters.  Loved Biloxi and the panhandle coastal area.  Would really like to stay much longer or even make it our winter choice in the future.  Much quieter beaches and not a lot of buildings on the beach side of the road so you can actually SEE the ocean, instead of a business or house. Lots of wide sidewalks and trails for walking and biking too.
We took the ferry to Mustang Island on the East coast of Texas (backing up in our trip) and saw dolphins playing in the bay.  Randy went into a "tourist" store and came out the sharks mouth.  Never know what that guys going to do......

I will try to keep the Blog updated more frequently 1) so there is something to read 2) So I remember more of what we did  3) So I can keep documenting our travels.  We have many people as us questions about where we've been or what we did at a certain place.  So I just jump on the internet and review the Blog so I can tell them the right info.  We are both doing well and still loving the gypsy life.  Christmas was hard being away from family and the kids but Randy let me cry and then we went for a nice walk.  So I made it through.  Kids Skyped so we could see them open gifts (that helped a lot).  Warm winter in Florida so more adventures to come.
