OMG Snow

Here we are in Valentine, NE and there is snow everywhere. Knew we left FL to soon. Shorts, sandals off and long pants and tennis shoes on. dang.

Week end at Verl and Lynda's was great. Dustin in from Hawaii, Alex from OK, Brittany camping in the back yard and party all week end. Lynda threw a great party with lots of BBQ, potato salad, beer, wine and Marquita's. Verl is now a licensed preacher, a gift from the two boys.

Left Monday morning and made it to McPherson, KS. Just a long day of driving, did stop at one casino where Doug won $60.00 so we are up $20. WOW

Only made it 490 miles as someone took a nap without telling the driver to turn on HWY 83 so when "they" woke up we were 27 miles pass the turn off and had to turn back. There went almost an hour so we only made it to Valentine, but that is okay. Met up with my cousin Dean and his family in Grand Island, NE for lunch and had a very good visit. They have just returned from a vacation in Ireland. Their daughter Rita and her husband, Jeff joined us and we were able to see pictures of their adorable little boys. Hope they all can make it to WA for the family reunion.
