I am back.............
Had a wonderful Thanksgiving with Brian, Jamie, Grant, Wyatt and the Hebert family (thankyou Val and Kelly for feeding the homeless).
Also need to thank Sue's nieces Shawna, Taresa and Taresa's husband Mark. Stayed in their beautiful Pearland Texas home the night before we flew from Houston to Denver and then as we came back into Houston so that we would not be driving in the dark. Was treated to a wonderful meal of steak, maui maui, crab legs along with all the sides......mmmmmmmmmmmmmm!! Thanks again, see you at Christmas.
Successful Drs/Dentist visits along with get togethers with some old friends/neighbors (Bob, Marilyn and Tracey).

This wild and crazy adventure has already paid off in giving us the opportunity to visit with family members that for some reason was never pursued prior to. Grateful for the visit that we had in Kansas City with my Aunt and Uncle (Pat and Wayne) and their son's (Phillip) wonderful family. They have lived at their current location for years but we never seemed to get that way. Then the bonus of the visit with Shawna, Taresa and Mark in Houston. All such gracious hosts.

I am calling this part of our new lives the "Family Reunion Tour". 

High Life............

Continuing in the relax mode. Other than catching up on some minor maintenance items (noisy air conditioner, weak awning spring, seeping grey tank valve, etc) and cleaning of the exterior (bugs from previous travels and continual removal of pine needles) enjoying the day to day activities of walks, dominoes, 5 o'clock happy hours, music and movie nights with our Texas family, antiquing at the close local towns and some fishing (need to work on this more).  Plus catching up on some reading and plotting out our course once we complete this phase of our travels. Thinking of heading South with an eventual western swing from here to experience the various Texas locations (Galveston beaches, Alamo at San Antonio...so far).
Recent temps have been more what we had expected for this area, 60s and 70s thru the day, 40s and 50s at night, very comfortable. Not quite as much sun as I had hoped for, days tend to be early morning fog and cloudy, but still not a snow flake to be seen.............nice!!!!!



 
A few pics of local area. Fall colors (yep....still) and the morning fog.
 
 
Road Rash........
 

Geeeeeeez....can't think of a thing.
