What a restful time we had in Sparks, NV.  We got into the Marina RV park after dusk.  We were checked in and a guy on a golf cart took us to our site. My friend, Pat, brought us over two big jars of homemade soup, (as soon as we arrived and got set up)  Two different kinds of soup, plus rolls.  Also, she made a quiche for our breakfast the next  morning.  She said that she didn't want me to have to cook for awhile! What a thoughtful thing to do!!!  That was such a blessing!! The next morning, she came back and picked me up and took me to her home so we could visit and PLAY all day!!  She had invited some other gals that make cards, as well, and one I hadn't seen in years and years.  What a great day of visiting!!! They hadn't heard of an Eclipse Card, so Pam took me back to the RV (which was only about a mile away) and I got the stuff for each of us to make one.  Pat supplied the cardstock.  Oh what fun!!!

We had a great time in Culver, OR visiting with friends and family!  Although, we were also working our bums off getting things organized for a yard sale and then getting what was left back into storage.  We did make quite a dent in the possessions in our storage unit.  Hopefully, by next Spring, we'll be totally FREE. After we got everything out of the storage unit, we put everything behind our 5th wheel in piles.  Believe me, this was only a part of it.  Thanks to our friend, Bill....and also Richard for helping us.  We'd have never gotten it done by ourselves.  As we had time, we went through each box and decided what to do with it.  Some was put in the yard sale, some was given to friends and a lot was donated. Oh gosh, the inside of our 5th wheel looked really bad till we got everything gone through.  Should have taken a photo just before we left with it all clean and tidy, once again.  :-) We spent almost 3 weeks in Cul...

What have we been doing for the past month?  We spent a few weeks up in WA and visited with our Granddaughter and our friends. We stayed on a dairy farm next door to some of our friends who snowbird in the winter months and live on a dairy farm in the summer. This was an almost daily scene.  I got to see 5 calves after they were born.  This little guy let me get pretty close for a photo :-) We take our granddaughter, every year, to The Patch in Woodland, WA.  It's a yearly tradition. She gets a huge kick out of getting to choose her own pumpkin.  We tell her she can have any pumpkin she can actually carry out of the pumpkin patch.   They have some HUGE pumpkins there. Then we spend time looking at the different pumpkins (they have 60 varieties), squash and different other things they have for sale. I got some little pumpkins, dried corn and other items to make a little centerpiece in our RV.  I love the squash that looks like a ...
