San Antonio, Texas. I will admit that John really didn’t want to come here. He said that after being here for basic training in 1963 when he entered the Air Force, he didn’t want to come back. But after looking at a lot of pictures of the River Walk, I wanted to visit. So he […]

We entered our 13th state – Texas. The name of the campground is Hilltop RV Park. The owners have tried to contrast the stark white ground with colorful metal Texan yard art. Even the metal storage building was painted to look like a cowboy place. The historic area of Fort Stockton had signs you could […]

We left Pendaries, New Mexico and drove to Carlsbad, New Mexico. The office building has the same design as KOA campgrounds. In fact, when I checked in the lady told me that the previous manager was now the manager at the KOA where we stayed in Laramie, Wyoming. New Mexico seems to be all rock. […]

We left Laramie, Wyoming and entered Colorado at 10:45 Mountain Standard Time.. It was a pretty apprehensive drive because we were going up in elevation and the roads were curvy. But, we arrived safely at the Cripple Creek Hospitality House and RV Park. Gorgeous views of the mountains all around us. The town was saved […]

The reason we came to Laramie, Wyoming was to visit with our high school classmate, Flew Pringle. We have been trying to do this for a few summers, but circumstances had prevented it. This woman never stops. Flew is involved in several things with the senior citizens, a theatrical group, and the Moose Club. She […]

After eating some lunch, we decided to do a little exploring. We drove into the city of Cheyenne. As […]

Happy Friday! Still leaning about the blog. We are leaving Big Springs, NE today and heading to Cheyenne, Wyoming. Where we have been the past two days is a working farm. Haven’t seen too much work going on, but I don’t how much work cows need.
