Off My Camera

After Nap Snack

                                 Leo loves to wrestle bears!
                                and open gates...
                                  Toy construction

                                  Just a swingin'

                                Yup, I am one.

It boggles my mind, the things these youngsters do at such a young age.

I'm Alive! I'm Alive!

I am starting to feel like I may get back my "youthful" vigor. It has not been a fun journey and I do not know how anyone who was the least bit frail could make it through with that ugly bug. I am also way behind on everything and I will not be rushing to catch up. I will take my own sweet time.
So after a bit more healing time you will get another post.
The greatgrands were delightful and there are plenty of pictures available and I will post ASAP.

Easter Sunday stomach flu

I am alive but not perky. Yesterday I thought I would die. Today is better but not good. We are headed for Iowa today. Butch will have to get us there on his own. I am not much help. No more posts till I am well.

Peculiarly Located

We have made it to Missouri! A whole day and one night without Internet. We went out to supper with Marilynn and her grandson Graem in Norman OK last night. Marilynn was our supervisor at Snow Mountain Ranch. Marilynn's husband Sam had a severe stroke last December. Their life has been very different since then. We had a good supper and a nice visit getting caught up.
Butch and I stayed at the Riverwind casino parking lot. We awoke at 4:30 AM and decided to get a head start on our trip to Missouri. My night vision is not good so I prayed that Butch's was better and off we went. We did miss much morning traffic but there are certainly quite a few people on the road at that hour. I was surprised. Our whole trip plan was off on the 2014 north journey. We like to travel on weekends and go through cities on Sunday's- preferably Sunday Mornings. That did not happen at any time this spring and we certainly noticed the difference in traffic.
We will be with our Missouri kids, grandkids and greatgrands for the holiday weekend and head on up to Jefferson on Monday AM.
Getting caught up will take some time so look for kiddo pics in the next few days. One great one I snipped today.

Afternoon Walk in Llano Texas






 Bluebonnets by the River


These grow in rock crevices. I cannot identify them.

Healthcare in the future. It is no wonder that it is impossible to keep up with technology.

IKEA Headboard

Today is the day we went to Round Rock Texas to the IKEA store and purchased our headboard. A very different experience to be sure. Fun though! It is in the car and as long as it remains there my spot in the car is in the back seat.
Our friends headed to their homes today but we sure had a good time while they were here.
Here are a few pics taken at the Fish Fry and Barbecue Saturday night.
