I haven’t posted for some time now. Our daughter got married on October 24th…nine months of preparation yielded thee perfect dream wedding. Nikki’s vision came to life that evening.

On October 18th I started getting sick and was quite ill through most of the week but felt good enough to truly enjoy the wedding and dance into the night.  I was coughing so much before the wedding I stayed in the RV 3 nights. Two days after the wedding, a chest x-ray showed a mild case of pneumonia.  It will be gone soon so no worries there.

Today we camp for the first time off our property with our best friends Jeff and Donna.  We’ll take the RV to the fairgrounds for a test run and will use all the appliances.  We can’t wait!

It’s been a hell of a year with me passing out at work, moving my brother to the AV to care for him, only to have him pass away 2 days later, our first grandbaby, Marlowe Rae was born,   our beautiful daughter Nikki married the love of her life Elliott, giving us two more wonderful grand children, Brody and Grace, then a case of walking pneumonia!  Even with the downs, I still say my cup runneth over.  I miss my brother terribly, but this RV experience is dedicated to him “Free as the Wind” was my brother Rick.  I’ll order a decal soon that says as much and will include a butterfly to symbolize my little sister Keri I lost 9 years ago.  Their memory will travel with me always ❤
