July 28 2017
we started our journey to New Mexico yesterday for brad and mallorys wedding on aug 12.. Last night we stayed in Oakwood RV park Clear Lake Iowa last night. Found a nice spot off the highway for $35 a night they did not take Good Sams or Passport America, however the sites were probably the biggest we have ever stayed at. paved pads, grass and LEVEL. all a bonus. tonight we are at Grantsville Kanas near Topeka KS. Topeka Hilltop campground . Cost $16 with PA. Small sites, but it does have a pool. Very much off the beaten path. Today, I decided that it would be a good idea to leave the back window open to keep  the air flowing in the camper. Well, not such a good idea...now I have a camper full of dust..damn! I spent 2 days cleaning prior to leaving Chippewa. . Tomorrow, we are off to Dodge City, staying at a Blue RV park.. they are having Dodge City days while we are there, should be fun.
  Update:  We decided to not stay at the Blue Rv Park as the reviews on that park were some of the worst I have ever read! Going to Gunsmoke Rv park instead and paying a lot more.

we are in Iowa is this the field of dreams?

Tom thinks he is Superman! He is in the phone booth trying to change!!!

July 16th 2017
 Another week flown by. Had a great time last weekend with friends Val and Ken. I introduced them to kayaking and they loved it. Now Deb and Doug Ellis are camped here for the week. They stay here every year during Chippewa fair. I washed the outside of the camper this week and it shines now! Karen, Joel and I did some painting at moms house this week and tom mowed the lawn so her place is looking good. time to list it! I need to get going and buy a dress for Brads wedding so that is the plan for this week. We plan to leave with the camper towards Alburquque   on the 28th.

July 1 2017
  Still parked at Pine Harbor campground. Slowly becoming better acquainted with the other seasonal campers. many are only here occasionally on weekends. Tom was dx'd with Lyme disease on June 21st after falling ill the previous sunday. Fevers, nausea/ vomiting, dizziness, bad headache. He essentially didn't move off of the couch for 7 days. Doxy was started and he started feeling better after about 3 days. We had to cancel our plans to go visit John and Laurie in Canada, he was just feeling too tired to make the drive. Friends Deb and Doug Ellis are coming to this campground for 2 weeks in July and also  Val and Ken Benton are coming next weekend for  2 nights. Yeah! We are planning on going to Kevins on Monday for a few days. we had our moving sale last weekend and it was pretty successful. We got rid of most everything we didn't want to save and made some money on our stuff. We now have a small unit
