Gramma's Aprons
More later. Please read this from the bottom up. I'll do better next time.
Another view of "The Queen"
When we were decorating for Christmas, had the manger set up, but characters, our cat, "Smokey", decided to occupy the spot, as she always does when we are moving things around.Gramma Jello made aprons for the little girls for this Christmas. It took awhile, was not easy for her, but she kept at it, and I thought they really came out super cute! I am proud of her really big effort to do this. I did this backwards. Sorry for the goof.
Here are some of Gayle's creations from years past. I am really proud of the things she has made. They make me feel happy to see them.

McCall, September, 2009
Just want you to know we have moved up. This is the flying boat we took to McCall. Next we will have our own jet, but this will do for now.
Our kids will remember these sandals, bought in McCall at Sprouse-Reitz, for $2.00, so long ago that we can't remember. (at least 20 years)
This is a picture of Randy on our way last year to what we thought was going to be a wonderful trip-not! (He was 25 lbs, heavier here.)

Here he is 25lbs. lighter! Isn't that great?
This is one of the old trilers that belongs to a group called "Sisters on the Fly".They travel to gether and have these kind of trailer that are being restored. This lady has a western theme, and has it fixed up just adorable. Of course, why wouldn't she--she owns a HUGE antique shop.
SEE WHAT I MEAN!!
For one of our breakfasts', Randy decided to make some camp toast---oh, excuse me, it appears that he made some butter with a tiny bit of bread under it!

This was our first time camping up at "Ponderosa". We went there many times when the kids were growing up. We pulled it up this time with Steve's pick-up. It appears we are on our way to the water!!
Yes, I guess we were. Isn't it jusst beautiful? It was a little bit later in the day so there weren't many people around. We kind of liked it that way! Look at that beautiful blue sky.
This was our beautiful camp spot. They told us it would mostly be empty, and when we got there it was all full except for two spots. It had been 100 degrees in the valley, so everyone headed for the hills. Nice and secluded, huh?

Who is that handsome guy there? I think I'll ask him for a ride!
This is the next morning. We had another great day. We were just getting breakfast ready and so Randy went out and made a fire. It makes it small so good!!!

Too slow
We were going to tell about our trip to Washington, but Verlee has beat us to it. So now we can just enjoy reading and looking on her blog. We are really happy she did it. She is a wonderful daughter-in-law.

Maiden Voyage of trailer 8-15-09
Hello! Hello! It is actually me!!! I thought it was about time to get with the program. I think Randy and I have had a 1955 Terry trailer for at least 30 years. It has been hanging around for so long that we figured maybe we'd never do anything with it. Well, we finally got the bug and decided to restore it. It has been slow, and is far from being done, but we are bound and determined to do it. We set last Friday night as the "launch" date. It isn't aesthetically fixed, but all the systems work. The 'beautifying" will come quite a bit later. You will see that the outside really needs a painting, but, oh well for now. We can only do what we can do. At times when we have had to take it to someone for a little "tweaking", we have had compliments on the condition of the wood inside, and also offers from people to buy it! That part is kind of fun.
Anyway, this may not mean much to you, but it is quite nostalgic to us. Our truck can't pull it yet, so thanks to Wendy's husband, Brian, we were able to use his pick-up with the hitch on it.We pulled it up to "Swinging Bridge Park" , which is 15 miles north of Banks. We didn't want to go too far in case somebody had to come and get "those old people in that old trailer".!!! Well, here we go
