Busy but Fun! On our way to Arkansas! Columbus day weekend with family and friends :)

 It's been a fun, busy two weeks. 

October 3rd we went to Michael Hohl Subuaru to see if we could get me a new Forester Subaru. The numbers worked and I/we have a new car that's not too big, but has enough room for the trips we take. I am in love with it! 

We left yesterday for Arkansas to visit our son Bryan, daughter in law Cheryl and my sister Wendy who moved to Heber Springs, Arkansas last April. 

We did 580 miles yesterday and spent the night in Williams, AZ. Tonight after 540 miles we are in Tucumcari, NM at a cute remodeled Route 66 motel. We should be at Bryan's on Saturday early afternoon. 😁 It's a quick trip, hopefully longer in April 2026. 

October 4th we went to the Outhouse Races in Virginia City. We talked John and Karen into meeting us there and spending the night. We stayed at the Silver Queen Hotel, supposed to be the most haunted in VC. Ken and I had the room where way back when a prostitute killed herself. No ghosts appeared unfortunately. Karen definitely didn't want anything that haunted so they had room 4. No ghosts either. Darn. But a really good time was had by all of us! Good food, great friends and good drinks LOL. 

The next week was spent getting ready for company on the Columbus Day weekend. WE ended up with Russell, Lori, John, Andrea, Mason, Chloe, Diane, Jesse and Michael coming to spend the weekend with us. Adam was able to get Monday off so he came Sunday night. It was a great time for all of us! Friday night we had friends Randi, Joel, Mark and Ross stop over for a visit. It was a party all weekend long LOL Nice that we had accommodations between everything we have. Monday most left and Adam stayed till Wednesday morning when we left. 

We're both so glad everyone wanted to come out and spend time with us. My heart is full and thankful! 💙

One afternoon we went to the range that's
about a mile or so from our house. 

I loved watching Russell, he is such a good teacher! 

Sometime during that week we met Adam in Minden and had lunch together after he bought himself a new 2025 Tacoma truck TRO model.

Adam and his new truck, he's a happy camper!
He and I went for a ride in the BLM, that's the
top two pictures! OH oh I think they're the same. 

Tomorrow's goal is Henryetta, Oklahoma and then pull into Bryan's house

early afternoon. Enjoying Happy Hour now! Hope you are too. :)
