Welcome Home Terry and bride. We enjoy following your “adventures “ but also know the value of all those comforts of home.

HOME!!!!!

Made it back to Oklahoma City area just about 1:00 pm. Went and had lunch with youngest son and then parked our work van in his driveway so I could give it the job-ending wash job. We hate feeding quarters to those car wash places and not getting a good clean vehicle.

What with climbing the ladder to wash the roof and top edges of the Ford Transit 350, plus unloading all our stuff that we take when on the road, plus getting and unloading groceries, my knee is killing me. Ibuprofen is on the agenda for this evening.

Looking forward to church services tomorrow, and then on Monday, we take the van to the Tulsa area and get it turned in.

Now, REALLY looking forward to our own bed, our own recliner, our own towels, and so many other things associated with home and not a hotel.

Welcome Home!

Time change weekend. Screwed up my schedule and the coffee is hitting the veins an hour late.

Have a great Sunday, it’s a gift. Enjoy it.


eta: fall foliage trip was good and not so good. Colors are almost nonexistent. But it’s still very pretty down there.
I haven’t seen so many Texas car tags since we drove through Dallas.

Coming back yesterday through Arkansas and Oklahoma on I-40, we did notice a little change in the leaf colors, but those colors are muted, and some leaves seemed to have gone straight to brown and dull.

When we left Alabama on Friday, we did happen to notice that there was a wee bit more color present in the leaves, but not by very much.

Yeah pretty much what we saw other than a couple very small pockets of color. Doubt we’ll make another run down there given the distance and texas crowds.

Well it seems that if it's hotter than usual everyone blames it on climate change. Colder? - climate change. Wetter? - climate change. Dryer? - climate change. More intense storms? - climate change. Bad day at the range? - climate change.

So just blame the muted Fall foliage colors on climate change . . . everyone else will

I figured it was because all of the cars/trucks/motorcycles from Texas down there blowing all the extra exhaust in the air.

Good evening guys,
Just drove back in from Dallas. The convention/competition went great. Now back to work for a few days before heading back up to Grand Lake. I can't wait.
Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Got my morning starter fluid in me.

Today looks like a gift.
I hope everyone who can gets out and enjoys it. Cooler temps followed by cold are heading our way.

In the next day or two I need to get my straw down on my berries.

OK, bring on the cold...

...I'm back where my flannel shirts and blue jeans are again.

We are taking the work van back to the company today. (They don't work on the weekends, so there was no one there to "accept" it back.)
