I'm interested in connecting with others who love the RV lifestyle. I like golf, Pickleball, books, bridge, gourd art, winetasting, and, most of all, travel

Reflecting on 2008

The last month of the year is about to begin, and another year will soon be over.  It's awesome how full the year has been.  I finally uploaded some photos, a selection designed to illustrate a few highlights.  The year began in Palm Springs, where Larry and I first learned how to play Pickleball.  Now we play 3 - 4 days a week at Happy Trails in Surprise, Arizona.  February's highlight was flying to Orlando to share George and Chris's week at Disney World.  At age 9 and 7 1/2, they were at a great age to fully experience the wonder of Disney.  February also started our first experience at an over-55 RV resort, Palm Creek in Casa Grande, Arizona.  We loved the lifestyle so much that we're back in it now.  After returning to California, we missed Pickleball but played golf and visited family (Sister Sandy and family in Kansas City and Cara's family in San Diego).  In May/June we flew to Kauai for our every other Hawaiian vacation, joined this time by good friends Rick and Marolyn.  Part of the summer was enjoyed in Santa Barbara getting our house ready for our absence during our first year-long RV adventure.  Mid-July to mid-August was full of Colorado wonders, and September was all about Brook's birth.  Participating in the birth of my fourth and probably last grandchild was too awesome to describe!  In October we started our love-affair with Happy Trails in Surprise, Arizona, which I think will become significant for the rest of our lives.  More on that later!
