Hi guys!
We got home from Muskegon this evening after three days of fun! The weather was wonderful with cool breezes and lots of sunshine...the water was fine too. Because of a storm out at sea (our inland sea) we had huge breakers rolling in making it hard to stay on your feet in the water but it couldnt keep us out of it. Was GREAT! We ate campfire apple pies, beef kebobs, brats and lots of good food plus the Mimosa's Christy and I had every evening. We had to keep them concealed as the park restricts booze of any kind. Its good really because there are many people who cant settle for just a couple of drinks and ruin it for everyone around them. We rode our bikes all over, swam and had a good time just being together. I am amazed at how quiet this huge campground is.....everyone did things with consideration for those around them. We slept till 9 am. and thought we were the first ones up! We plan to get the same sites next year as we were backed up to a running stream that the kids played on the whole time we were there. They loved it! We brought the munchkins home with us as it is now our turn to babysit. The other grandmother did the month of June. They are watching Scooby Doo right now...bed time soon.
Tomorrow the construction crew comes back to start putting in my new floor. Just wish we didnt have to go thru all this with the kids here. Oh well...will manage it.
Lin, I hope you get out of Ogden soon and get your butt out here!! Pleeeeease beeeee careful! Look forward to seeing you soon.
Hope you are all well.
I love you every one!
Love, Rose

Hellooooooooooooooo From Ogden!
Hi all,
Well, I am in Ogden for one more night. My altenator is being worked on as we speak and the battery is being charged. The machanic thinks it is not the altnator afterall but the annunciator. Either way, he thinks it may be finished today and I will be able to fly off tomorrow morning. Keep the fingers crossed. I will post tonight when I know more.
Love to all, Linda

OOOOOOOOOGDEN, UTAH
HI All,
Well, I made it as far as Ogden, Utah so far and now am sitting around waiting for my altenator to be fixed or a new one installed. This is part of the adventure that you hope never happens but when it does you just have to go with the flow. I think this is like boating, you never know when something will fail and how long you will have to wait for repairs to happen. I think in the future I will carry some spare parts. That way all I have to do is say," here, put a new one in". I will keep you updated!

OFF INTO THE WILD BLUE SKY TOMORROW!
HI All,
Well, tomorrow morning at 600am I will be leaving the ground for my flight to Ogden Utah and then to some small town for the night. The weather looks good to Ogden but gets a little dicy after that. It always looks worse then it turns out to be. I have a great weather identifier in the airplane and can keep pretty good tabs on the weather outside. I will try to get to Saginaw by around 4 or 5 pm on Monday but can't be certain. I know you all think I should climb onto a commercial flight and get there but YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH FUN MY WAY IS! If I didn't have such wussy sisters you would know the fun! I will update everyone as I go and will do it on this site. Wish me luck!
Just know that I love every one of you so much!!!
Ing, I will call you and email you.
Love, Me

The Annual Camp Outing!
Hi everyone!
Its that time of year again...BBQ's, swimming, camping, hiking, biking! Larry and I and the Holmes family are going camping at the big state park outside of Muskegon today. It is right on Lake Michigan in a beautiful, heavily wooded forest. We are packed and putting things together in the camper to leave here by 11:30 this morning. Will be gone until Monday afternoon whereupon my sister should have arrived from Calif. and having a cocktail with our Linwood sister. We have gone to this favored campground for two years now because the kids love it, it caters to family, no booze allowed and we can walk a short path to the Great Lake beach. I plan to do some campfire cooking, baked fresh bread yesterday at Esthers house (I still dont have an oven yet) and my camper is stocked with provisions. We will put the awning lights on when we get there, set up the grill and lawn chairs out and we are good for three days! It should be fun. Will write again after Linda goes back home and give you a progress report regarding our construction project. Hope everyone is happy and well. I think of you always. Love, Rose
