We’ll spend today at the trailer saying goodbye there.

Another smoky sky day. However, unlike those folks in the west, the smoke is NOT at ground level.

Ella posted: The proud owners of our Iowa trailer and Cutty’s membership. Thanks for all the help Keith and Joey. You were a life saver.

Our whole family worked so hard getting things done. We’re lucky to have the family we have. Amber even came up from Florida to help.

It has been a very busy 2 weeks. We have seen a lot of family and friends. Not having transportation, we didn’t get some of places we would have like to go and see some of our friends. We’ll try to do that when we’re visiting next summer.

We had a small gathering with friends before leaving to spend the night at John and Dawn’s home. Tom and Sue Stone, “Little” Francis, and Kara (behind the camera).Packing John’s 5th wheel trailer in preparation for leaving at 2:00 a.m.
