Cracker Barrel in Edmund Oklahoma first stop for lunch.

After lunch Steve is scouting out which way is best route to the gas station.When you are in a 35ft or 40ft motor home it is very important so you don't get stuck.

On a warm Saturday morning in May we decided to ride our bicycles downtown to eat breakfast. We usually eat breakfast out on Saturday mornings. As we arrived downtown we saw some old time cars on the square. After some investigating we found out that there was going to be a car show that afternoon. Always something fun happening in good old down town Graham Texas. We came back later that day and had a fun time seeing some great cars. The Lions Club carnival was going on at the same time. Just a busy weekend!

Wow this means it is time to go home.

2011 April

April was a hard month for Texas. We had no rain in quite some time. Every thing is so dry. The winds this year have been very strong and changing direction almost daily. This combination just makes it ideal for fires. So far we had over 1 million acres that burned in wildfires.

April,what a month !!!

Fires in Young and Palo Pinto counties

This one just started as we where driving home from the
lake.

Bunger Road

Almost could not see the road.

Rodeo in Graham Texas

February began with the first few days of ice and snow. Then after a week of ice and snow it took another week for the snow to melt. It was time for a COOK OUT!!! February 13th was a wonderful weekend and we took full advantage of some very needed sun.Ribs and corn on cob sounded sooo good accompanied with black bean quinoa salad.
