Tonopah and Vegas and things that cannot be said aloud!


A new Blog entry dated 10/1/15

Sept 18 we got to Tonopah and got to see Joanne, Rick and the dogs! We stayed in a campground right down the road until Sunday when Joannes boss was nice enough to let us set up camp in her driveway! Thanks Marthe! She does not live in Tonopah at the present time so she has allowed us to park, plug in and use her shower when needed!

On Saturday Joanne and I attended a daylong Christian women’s retreat, which was very uplifting! I met a lot of Joanne’s friends and just had a really good day. Dave spent some time with Rick and we all had dinner together; it is wonderful to have this time with them! Sunday was spent setting up the RV in Marthe’s driveway and just having a nice day!

So Dave helped out (worked) at the Best Western building some cabinets for a special project! It was certainly great for him to keep himself busy and I just hung around.

Wednesday our 44th anniversary  we drove down to Vegas for a few days and stayed at Joanne and Ricks  house in Henderson! Dave and I went to the Barrett-Jackson car show and had a great time . OK so this must be written…..I have always known that this house is in the desert, therefore there are some “critters” but I have never seen one and I never wanted to know about the “critters” . but Thursday eve about 10 I got a look at my first one! EEEKKKKK , Hey Dave I think there is a “BUG” on the floor! Needless to say it was difficult to sleep!  So first thing on Friday Joanne was good enough to call the exterminator guy to come and spray. Now you realize I have not said the “word” and the guy knocks on the door and says and I quote. Hello, So where exactly are the scorpions?” WHAAAATTTTTT. Doesn’t he know I can’t talk about it? YIKES #ICANTEVENSAYTHEWORD#Difficulttoeventypeit! OK enough about that!

Joanne and Rick came down Friday night and we went out for dinner and then Saturday we drove them to the airport to fly to Hawaii! Spent the rest of Saturday down at the strip seeing the car show and gambling a bit. Left to come back to Tonopah on Sunday so that we can stay with the dogs at Joanne and Ricks house!

GB and Precious were happy to see us and the 3 dogs seem to be getting along! We have spent our days trying to get the RV in shape! Steam cleaned the carpets defrosted the fridge It looks great. In the mean time I found great deals on a flight back east! We will be going to Philly first on the 14th of October and then drive up to CT.

Well this pretty much gets me up to date! I know there are things I missed but will add them later and hope I can get the pictures added too! For some strange reason my phone is not  synching  with my computer!
