2015 My how time flies when you are having fun!!! Since my last post in 2012, Mike, my husband of 36 years, retired from American Eagle Airlines a year ago. He didn't think he would like retirement, but keeps busier now than when he was working. (His words, not mine!) He is the Secretary of the Home Owners Association so gets all the headaches he needs from that, including keeping track of problems at the community pool and approving improvements and watching the money situation. We purchased a 2011 pop-up trailer last month after taking a Teardrop to the 5 year Class Reunion in Edgemont. We found it to be a little small for 2 old, fat people to get into and out of easily. (You needed to be an acrobat & limber,both of these do NOT describe us!). Anyway, it is a 2011, that we bought on Craig's list. The man we bought it from said he and his family had only used it 3 times. It does smell new and Mike is checking everything out and making sure hoses etc are working correctly. It has a A/c, heater, hot water heater, stove, very small refrigerator, sink, potty, shower, queen size bed, double bed, and table & benches make into a bed. He says all he needs to fix now is the emergency brake. Their dog ate one of the tail light covers and chewed on the cable to the emergency brake. We are looking forward to getting out of Texas for the SUMMERS!!!! (At least I am!) Before the Class Reunion we went to NE to see my mothers only living sibling who is 86 now. He is doing well, just hard of hearing. TV :& radio full volume!. Then to Edgemont for 5 days, then headed out for Powell,WY to see one of my cousins (who told me we hadn't seen each other since his sister got married 50 years ago). Had a great visit with him and his wife, then left to go to Cody, WY where my Uncle used to own the K-Z Dude Ranch. Dad had helped him build some of the buildings and most of my family have been up there, but I never had, so cross that off my "bucket list" list. We spent one night there then headed home. Passed through Casper,WY and stopped to see an old friend who had purchased the T-6 from Tired Iron Race Team. He still has the airplane and now has a large Museum which he has all organized and goes back to WW2 and probably some stuff before that. Has things I wonder how he got them....On Thursday, the owner of the trailer called and said he needed us to return it Sunday afternoon instead of Monday morning so we drove 18 hours Friday, 12 hours Saturday, and got the trailer cleaned out and returned by 10am Sunday. We all 3 (the dog & us) took 2 days ...Expand for more
