June 30 Monday

Summer is here and our schedule is going to calm down now. The last two months were hectic but I had fun. We spent lots of time with our family and I got to see the kids a lot over the last several weeks. Since I last wrote we spent about 4 days in Knoxville visiting Danny and Reid did some golfing. We left on Thurs to go to Spring Mill State Park in IN for a family reunion. We had over 50 family members there and had a fun weekend. We left Sunday and headed to our membership park in Michigan. Reid has been looking forward to getting here cause it's cooler and the humidity is low. He was not disappointed. When we arrived yesterday the temps were mid 70's and the low was in the 50's. Nancy and Bob are at this park for this week so we'll be hanging out with them alot. We did our grocery shopping today and Reid has a tee time for tomorrow with Bob. We grilled out with Nancy and Bob tonight and then a friend of their's brought over homemade cheese cake..it was terrific. Tomorrow is my day to get the rv set up. I need to get all the laundry caught up and my trinkets put out and just chill.
BTW...Stephanie had her followup today for her surgery and got her stitches removed. She will start physical therapy this week and will be on medical leave for at least another two weeks. She's tired of the crutches and is ready to walk again.
that's all for now

June 21 Sat

hey all..
Well our time in South Ga is coming to an end. We are leaving tomorrow heading to MI with stops in Knoxville, TN (go Vols) to see Danny and then to IN for a family reunion and then to MI for the summer. Stephanie had her knee surgery on the 16 and after a rough couple of days (for her not me) she's feeling much better. She can't put any weight on the knee till her follow up apt on June 30 but she's getting around on the crutches just fine..
The heat and humidity here has been rough for Reid (and also the gnats) so he's ready to head north.
Steph and I tried a new restaurant before her surgery. It's called Fatz and it was really good. Steph has a friend who works there and he was our waiter so we kept him busy.. One of our favorite places is Longhorn. We went there a couple of times.. they have great steaks..That was where we took Dad for Fathers Day. We went last Saturday cause Stephanie had to work on Sunday.. There's not a lot to do here so that's all to report on the area.
We'll get to Knoxville tomorrow and take Danny out for supper then start making our way to IN for the family reunion that begins on Friday..There will be family members from several states at the reunion some we haven't seen in years. that's always fun. On Sunday, June 29 we head to MI to get together with friends Bob and Nancy. we'll actually see then off and on all summer.. Happy Travels everyone.

June 6

No excuses this time I'm just lazy. I spent the time in Tennessee seeing family so I didn't have time to blog..We drove to Ga on the 16th to see our kids. Stephanie arrived Friday night and Danny came in on Sat. We grilled out steaks with them on Sat night and then took in a Braves game with them on Sunday. (we won) We had a blast..It had been over a yr since the four of us had been together..I smiled all weekend. We stopped at Applebee's after the game and then Danny had to head back to East Tenn for work on Monday.. Steph stayed till Monday night before she had to get back. Reid and I decided to see another game (Go Braves) on Tues. (won again) We left Ga on Wed and headed to Chattanooga for a couple of days. We went to the Aquaruim and really thought it would have more ocean life than it did..We left and went back to TN for another week till the wedding. Our niece got married at the end of the month and she was a beautiful bride. We thought we had our trip planned and was to leave June 5 for Mobile and then on to Ga cause Steph is having knee surgery in a couple of weeks. But the night of the 4th one of our air conditioners went out. it's in the mid 90's in TN, AL and GA this week so we need our air..The trip to Mobile is out and we headed to Ga to a repair place. We didn't want to miss being here for Stephanie and her surgery so we found a place here to fix the AC and we will be here till the middle of June..
That catches us up for now. I'll try to blog better but you know if I'm not blogging I'm out having fun..
