It's Been A Long Time

Now For A Update

    Well the last time I blogged was in April, we had made the decision to retire in May, and on May 15th, we pulled the plug and headed out on our adventure. We miss our friends in Roswell a lot. However we have made friends throughout our travels and time has past really quickly.
    We started out adventure, traveling to Texas to reestablish our new residence. We landed in Livingston and began the paper work side of getting everything set up a Texans. This is a time consuming endeavor, but not bad, if you do your homework and have the proper paper work pre-completed. Mailing address, first then, license plates and registrations, then Driver licenses and voter registration.  While doing this, we stayed at the  Escapee Park in Livingston and the people at the park and the DMV couldn't have been more helpful.
While in Texas we moved from Livingston to Jasper, to spend some time with my sister and husband. We had a great visit, spent some time fishing, playing golf and working on their collection of 1968 Mopars. It doesn't get any better then that.

While we were in Texas, with drove up to Plano and attended out two grandsons birthday parties. Bridget(our daughter) and her husband Jack, have a couple of great kids. Grandma and I love playing with them.

After spending 3 1/2 weeks in Texas it was time to head for our summer destination in Colorado, so after a 3 day drive (dang, Texas is big) we arrived at Fun Valley RV Resort, a few miles west of South Fork. We set up for the next 3 months. If you have never been to Fun Valley, you are missing out. This park has everything, fishing, live country music, paddle boats, putt putt golf, and the best people you will ever meet. We met and made friends throughout the summer and these are good people. They took us in and we felt welcome. We enjoy their company tremendously.

Did I mention great people
 
Did I mention fish.
While we were in Colorado with had a surprise visit from Janice's sister and Mother.


After their visit, we loaded up the truck (left the Mountaineer at Fun Valley) and head west to Utah to visit my sister. Lynn and Tom have a cabin in the mountains. Again we had a lot of fun, playing golf, fishing, and relaxing while touring the area in their Ranger.
