IS THIS OUR LAST TRIP???

As we visited at Paul & Brenda's house during our pre-trip "Happy Hour", Brenda asked, "Is this really our last trip together? What about next summer?" Well, we certainly hope it is not our last trip together. However, we aren't sure about next summer. It is still our intention to list the house about March 01, 2011. If it should sell quickly, we will be living in the RV next summer. (Three mobile homes in our park have sold very quickly recently.) I guess we still might be able to go on a trip. We will just have to cross that bridge when we get to it. We will probably need to go to South Dakota to establish residency.......Paul maybe we could knock out North Dakota on our travel map. Wish we could have gotten to Oregon and Washington.

We really enjoy traveling with Brenda & Paul. We enjoy many of the same things and it is easy to  adapt to situations when we want to do something different. We have pretty much covered the USA together. The first trip was to Biloxi, MS in July.......never do that! Myrtle Beach, Gulf Shores, Wisconsin Dells, Upper Michigan, the southwest trip to New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Colorado, then Glacier Park in Montana, Yellowstone and Jackson Hole, WY, and this recent trip to the Smoky Mountains including, Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg. Brenda likes the beach and Lon likes the mountains and staying away from people and traffic (except for Albuquerque, Paul ) is much easier in the western states. Paul & Sharon seem to like it all.

We both wish our co-travelers were ready to retire so they could go with us on some of our adventures. We are happy though that they are still "young".  It seems on every trip, Paul has helped me with some mechanical issue and often times I will have some hose, cord, sewer adapter, or something he needs. We share food and drink first in one RV, then the other. We often do lunches on the road in their RV because we can get to their table without putting a slide out. We take turns leading and following. We have stayed in some really nice parks and then.........there was Clarksville, TN........what a dump! We will miss you guys SO MUCH! We love you both and value your friendship and company. Again, we certainly hope we have many more miles to travel together and many more "Happy Hours" to share.
