We're off tomorrow! Adam visits, Avery of course! :) Happy 25th Holly!

 A quick wrap-up as we are out of here tomorrow morning. Our 54th anniversary is the 16th of September. We like to plan vacation around that time. Well, we've wanted to do the train from Durango CO  to Silverton around that time but to get the seats we want we need to be there first week or so.  Guess people are wanting the colors of fall which we get. 





WE could do that  but Ken has an appointment on the 23rd. Anyway we opted to leave tomorrow and spend the night at Cave Lake outside of Ely. Then we are on to Goblin Vallly State Park in Utah. Our good friend Sue Black told  us for years we need to stop there . Hopefully Sue sees we made it there from heaven. 

After 2 nights there we will be in Durango, CO for 3 nights. Friday we will ride the train from Durango to Silverton Co. That is on my bucket list After that we'll see where we end up! 

No Bologna sandwiches until the 16th though..LOL. 

We debated on doing the motel thing but the motels were ridiculous. 170 plus tax for an Econolodge?! nope. Not that the RV park is cheap but worth it! I'm sure we'll enjoy this trip! The Midget it is! 

Adam got off the fire after 2 weeks so he spent Saturday and Sunday at home.  Monday morning he headed over here (does it get any better for grandparents!) On Wednesday he headed to Virginia Lakes Area and did a  9+  mile hike from 10, 000 + to almost 13.000 mile elevation hike. 







                                           Adam headed for home! 

                                                     Papa and Adam πŸ’–


He was on top if the world! Not something I want to do from his description! 

What blog would be complete without pictures of our sweet great granddaughter?!

Holly said she's laughing now. Does it get any better than baby giggles?!πŸ’–




Happy 25th Holly!! πŸ’–




WE had a nice Happy Hour this morning and then spent  time getting things finished for tomorrow. Doesn't have to be a super early start. 

Have a great evening! 

We ran over to Walker River State  Park for a picnic and to get
the annual $30.00 State Parks pass which allows up to camp in a state park for FREE if they don't have hook ups or $10.00 if they have water and electricity. Can't beat that can ya?!

The sites are HUGE~


We watched him put up his half staffed flag for Dolly! 


Our beautiful sunset from homeπŸ’•


Griddle with Chicken thighs for Ken, Breast for me and mexican chicken for

Have a wonderful night!
