March 30th 2017 Long time since last post. We unexpectedly had to go back to Wi. on march 19th. Toms lovely mom passed away on her 90th birthday. Very sad but she lived a long and relatively healthy life. now we are back to the cold dreary Wisconsin march spring. we need to now clean out her condo and disperse of her belongings. that is the really sad part. she collected all her stuff over her lifetime and loved it all and now no one wants most of it and almost everything is going to Good Will. It took us 29 hours to drive home as quickly as we could. we did get a accurate idea of the cost of driving back and forth $400 one way. We did have good weather driving back tho, so thankful for that. spring weather in the middle of the country can get dicey. Since being back in wi. we stayed for a few days in Hazels driveway in the camper. all of our boys came home for the funeral and brad brought grandson brett. it was so good to see him. now we are at the cabin in trego. no campgrounds around here open until mid to late april at the earliest. Prior to us leaving on the 19th we had a great time with our wi. friends Rob and Karri LaBarre who came down to visit for a week. Karri and I took second place in the Corn Hole tournament at Belle Parc and then we spent a day kayaking on the Weeki Wachee river. Had a great time seeing the manatees and a beautiful river sights. We made so many good friends at Belle Parc and it was so hard to say goodbye so quickly. most of the campground came up to offer their condolences and to help get us on our way as soon as possible. Such a great group of people!
