In April 2007 we had sold our home in Michigan and moved into our new fifth wheel trailer to start our adventure of full timing and exploring in our RV. We started our blog so family and friends can track us and see what we are up to. You can double clink any picture to enlarge it.

Poker & euchre & painting & observations




On Monday Judy and I started a painting class here at the RV park. Judy can draw a decent stick figure but I can't draw a staight line so this will be pretty interesting. I had wanted to paint a picture from Oregon with the front end of our HitchHiker against some snow topped green mountains but the teach suggested an easier starting painting so we agreed, this time. Like the moon in Judy's painting? It's the teachs thumb print.

When we lived in MI I thought the Ann Arbor News was often carried away with U/M sports but they don't come close to the Mobile Register. The front page usually has football pictures and sports headlines at the top, above all else. Even now with the football season over they have not only football (still) but also basketball pictures and banners at the top of the front page. Another observation, Detroit doesn't have a corner on crime and murder; lots of it down here. Auto accidents and deaths.....lots of those too.

I've had two real good days playing poker, winning $15 to $20 each day, now lets see how long I can keep it. Judy has been doing real good at euchre. She's won $$$ at both the RV Park and the American Legion.

We went out last night to the China Dragon with a group from the RV Park.
