WELCOME TO OUR ADVENTURES!

Since Larry has retired (again) we have decided to start a personal blog. Here we hope to publish our adventures and activities that might interest our family and friends. Some events you may hear about here first, so stay tuned!

Our newest adventures really started when we visited with Jenny, Ryan, and the grandkids in Fort Polk, LA for Thanksgiving 2018. We pulled our new 19′ travel trailer down there from Mi Wuk Village, CA and parked it in their driveway for a week.

(This was not their driveway, it is the Alabama Hills near Big Pine, CA).

The ADVENTURE began when Jenny announced that Ryan was retiring from the USAF after 20 years (in June 2019). He retired, they moved to San Antonio, TX. Then John announced that he was promoting to a job at Peterbilt’s corporate headquarters near Dallas, TX.

You can guess what happened next! We decided to move to Texas, somewhere between Dallas and San Antonio.

Our house is for sale. Our ‘stuff’ is packed and loaded into 2 PODS. We take off with our trailer on Tuesday or Wednesday this week.

This will be a real adventure for us. Larry will pull the travel trailer with the pickup and Sue will pull the ‘tower trai’ler’ – a converted old Monkey Wards boat trailer, converted to transport the two-section 36′ crank-up antenna tower.

PRAY FOR US as we make our way to Kerrville, TX. That is our where we will land initially. From there we will shop around for a new home while we live in our little trailer.

More to follow as we blog our adventures – might even blog some interesting stories about our time in Tuolumne County, CA and fun times living and working in snow country!

Thanks for following along — please leave a comment, even if it’s just to say “HI!”
