LIFE "ON THE ROAD"

This, our second "Casita" trip, is different because we are sharing it with several of our "favorite" buddies! There's no one we would rather spend time with than Pop and DeDe. We spent weeks sailing with them on San Francisco Bay. This time it's a "road trip". While on the road in separate cars, we communicate with walkie talkies so we can talk about the sights we are seeing and our plans. Most of our meals have been in the Casita, sharing space with Picot and Murphy. It may seem a little "cramped" but it works fine. Everyone has their spot except Murphy, who enjoys roaming around.

OUR IDAHO TRIP

DeDe and Pop are joining us for our trip to Idaho and we're having a great time! The first part of the trip, from San Diego to Las Vegas was uneventful and we didn't take photos. In Las Vegas, DeDE and Pop stayed at the Silverton Casino Resort and we stayed at the Oasis RV Resort. That night we had barbecued chicken at our camp spot.

The next day, we took the long ride from Las Vegas to Ely and saw some wonderful, ever-changing scenery. We topped off the day with a Mexican dinner at LaFiesta restaurant, recommended by Jim, and weren't disappointed. We are staying at the KOA campground, which has lots of trees. Of course, we're surrounded by huge RV's and we are the smallest RV in the lot, but we are simply in love with our little trailer and totally comfortable. We have cable TV, kitchen, bath and Internet (broadband) and this trip we have the birds with us. They are doing great! I'll post some photos.

MOTHER'S DAY 2007

Today was a wonderful Mother's Day day! We met for lunch in Old Towne and had a really enjoyable time. The weather was perfect, the food was really good and we enjoyed special Almond flavored champagne that Amy brought and tasted different desserts! The best part was the company, of course. We missed Julie, Dick, Missy, Jim, Nathan and Caitlin but they were there in spirit!

P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JULIE!!! :-)

The moms!!

CACTUS COUNTRY RV RESORT-TUCSON, ARIZONA

We spent our final night of this trip in Tucson Arizona at the Cactus Country RV Resort. What a wonderful evening we had! Tony cooked some amazing steaks that we had purchased in Bandera, which we enjoyed with Cabernet. Afterward, we sat outside in the warm evening sipping wine and talking about our trip and planning future trips. We both agreed that purchasing this little Casita trailer is one of the best decisions we've made. Cheers!
