Mom's 81st BD



Well it has been busy for weeks with Mom's birthday, 81 and my brother Don and the rest of his family out from Missouri visiting, his wife Anna came out a week early and is staying a week after they leave..Smart woman... We did a supprise birthday party for Mom.. she did not want any presents so while she was at one of the house we gathered things around the house and wrapped them up and gave them to her... she got her purse back, pictures and a lot of knick knack things... it was great fun...we figured it was stuff she would use and like.. a win win situation... it was a great time had by all...

First trip

Well it was the first trip with the trailer. It towed very well. We went to Lake Skinner located just outside of the wine country around Temecula. The trip started out just fantastic it was only a hour and half trip and of course one hour into it someone had to go the bathroom.. Well we finally made it and i ask Tammy if she had bought the bait for fishing.. No... so a quick stop at the camp store for some beer and bait.. well while standing in line, in the store i was eaten alive by mosquitoes. I have not given that much blood in a long time in such a short time. Once in camp it was much better but we pretty much used Off repellent the rest of the trip, aka country cologne. Fishing sucked, not even a bite. We did hit some really nice antique shops but purchased only a few decorations for the trailer.. the camp ground was OK.. clean and level but the other campers are very close as can be seen in the pictures... the motor home right next to us was part of a group of 6 other campers all in their early 60's.. they had a karaoke machine and plenty of margaritas and were very hammered by 10pm.. the show was great.. well the trip was great and the trailer worked very well.. I cannot wait for the next trip........
