Well, it has been a year since our last vacation and I can remember a year ago, thinking as we traveled through the great north west that I was sad because I was sure we were going to have to put Roxy, our Austrailian shepperd down. She has a tumor that is growing in her belly. She has bad lungs and congestive heart failure, so putting her under to try to address the tumor is not an option. We really thought we were going to have to find a veterinarian along the way to put her to sleep. A year later, she is still going strong. And, quite frankly, we think she is doing a little better. We know the tumor is still there, and growing. Carol Palpates for it on occasion and has seen an increase over time with it, but, Roxy seems to be tuffing it out, and for the most part, happy with each day of life.
Also, a year later, we find that diesel prices are atleast a dollar less than they were a year ago. As a result, we find that we are still able go out with our RV on occasion. The current price of diesel $2.99 a gallon. Last year at this time if I remember, we were looking at about $4.19 a gallon.
We will be taking a week off to go to Acton, in the Antalope Valley of Southern California to Join a Samboree of a bunch of folks. We're looking forward to this trip 'cause we will get to also get to see the Manzanar National Historical park. But, before that happens, we will be joining the entire Waite family for what is going to start being an Annual Family reunion at the Lodi Tower Park KOA. Today, we went and checked out the facilities and finalized our reservations. We also joined in helping Carols brother Peter in celebrating his 61st birthday.
Next weekend, we join up with an Escapee's club at the Jackson Rancheria RV park. Tune in next weekend for an update.
Happy Camping! - Eric-
