REUNION

We had a fun time this weekend when Dave & Sally Blasingim, from Greer's Ferry, AR stopped to see us here at Lake Village. Dave and Sally were on the Alaska trek with us this summer. We enjoyed their company and friendship throughout the Trip. They were headed to Iowa, Saturday and veered off their path somewhat just to come see us.

We had a campfire, shared some viddles and a late, into the evening "Happy Hour". It was great to relive experiences from the trip, share memories, & find out who they had heard from that we had not. Some of our trek group are organizing a reunion next summer at Branson. It will be interesting to see if it happens and a great location for us. Time will tell.

This is our last full week at Paris. It is beautiful today, more like spring than fall. However, the weekend will bring much cooler days, and nights into the 30's. We will pull out next Wednesday and stop at Brenda & Paul's for a few days. They have been great to let us have space to store clothes. We will leave some of our short sleeves in exchange for some more cool weather, sweaters & jackets. Won't be much because we had a lot of fall clothes for Alaska.

Thanks to everyone here who has been so kind to us. We do appreciate it.

Thanks again Dave & Sally. It was great fun.

Happy Trails, til we see you again!
