Briefly, we left Utah, headed through Colorado on our way to Sturgis, SD for "bike week" to meet up with fellow POGGER's Truk & Nanc and Dale & Jan in Spearfish, SD. Amazing time!!!! This will have to be a post of its own. Then we hightailed it to Washington Court House, OH where we left the bus to be painted. the 5-week job turned into 11 weeks . . . Thanks to the generosity of my sister and family and my folks, we rooted ourselves for 8 of it in CT. When Bill could stand the task of communicating paint issues via e-mail no more, we made a reservation at the local Hampton Inn in OH. We thought we would be there maybe 1 week - WRONG - more like 3 weeks! This delay also caused us to miss the POG rally in Branson and a visit with my cousins, Judy & Wayne.
Regardless, it is finally done - and Bill is very happy with the replication of his design . . . our home looks great! Certainly took a few years off her appearance. Too bad we can't do the same thing.
From OH, we had a quick visit with the kids in VA. Kady took a couple of days off and stayed with us. Dan was only 1 town away, so after he returned from a weekend in SC (visiting his girlfriend at college) he spent some nice dinners with us. I can't tell you how great it was to see them. That is the only hard part for me being a fulltimer.
We left VA to join another POG group for a weekend in beautiful Landrum, SC at the farm of Debi and Bob. I can't imagine a more perfect setting (wonderful hosts!) for a Fall get together. This will be my next post - promise!
But today finds us at Pirateland Campground in Myrtle Beach, SC. We are here for the month trying to get caught up on all the neglected "household" duties around the bus. The weather is great and we can hear the shore (only a 2 minute walk out the door). Let me get some pictures uploaded and I'll be back.
Thanks for coming back . . . .
Jody
