SOMETIMES IT TAKES A PILOT AND CO PILOT TO GET THE JOB DONE.

THEN YOU JUST GOT TO COOL OFF! THE RED THAT LOOKS LIKE A NOSE IS ACTUALLY HER BOW IN HER HAIR. SHE LOVED GETTING WET.

whole in the wall rest stop and marcie wanting to cool off

I love this tree..don't know why??

Mt Rushmore, what a changed from 28 years ago.

THE KIDS LOVED THE GATOR MAN. HE WAS FUNNY BUT VERY CAUTIOUS. HE WAS SHOWING HOW TO SUBDUE A GATOR IF YOU HAPPEN TO RUN ACROSS ONE. HE TOLD WHAT NOT TO DO AND WHAT TO DO. VERY EDUCATIONAL.



WE FOUND CLOYDS AUNT THAT HE HAS NOT SEEN SINCE THE 80'S. WE TOOK MARCIE FOR A WALK TO FIND HER HOUSE, WE HAPPEN TO BE STAYING IN THE SAME END OF TOWN. I KNOCKED ON THE DOOR AND ASK "ARE YOU MS. LILLIAN ALLGIER"? SHE SAID "YES" I STEPPED ASIDE AND SAID "WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE CLOYD ALLGIER"? I AM BAD, I KNOW, SHE IS 78 I COULD OF CAUSED HER TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK, BUT ALL WAS GOOD!!!

WEATHER WAS BEAUTIFUL, SHARING SOME PHOTOS

BEAUTIFUL DAYS FOR SWIMMING. RAPID CITY, SOUTH DAKOTA WHERE THE WEATHER WAS IN THE 90'S THE WHOLE TIME.


MARCIE NORMALLY IS NOT ALLOWED OUT OF HER SEAT ON THE CONSUL BETWEEN CLOYD AND I BUT IT WAS A LONG RIDE AND SHE NEEDED A LITTLE PETTING. TAYA WAS HAPPY TO DO IT.

THIS WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PARTS. ABOUT 30 YEARS AGO WHEN WE TOOK THE THREE BOYS TO REPTILE GARDENS, OUR OLDEST TRAVIS HAD HIS PICTURE TAKEN ON THE BACK OF THE TORTOISE. THEY DON'T ALLOW YOU TO SIT ON THEM ANY MORE BECAUSE THEY ARE SO OLD. THIS ONE IS 129 AND THE VERY ONE THAT TRAVIS WHO IS TAYA AND JAYDENS DAD SAT ON. I THOUGHT THAT WAS PRETTY COOL!

BEFORE VACATION, JAYDEN AND MARCIE FOR A BIKE RIDE

JAYDEN WANTED TO WATCH MARCIE EAT PEANUT BUTTER~SHE ENJOYED IT!

YEARS AGO THE BOYS SEEN DEVILS TOWER FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STATE,LOL...WE POINTED IT OUT AS WE DROVE BY. IT WAS LIKE 1/2 INCH TALL. ON THE WAY HOME WE TOOK THE KIDS BY TO SEE IT UP CLOSE.

IT WAS TOO BUSY AT SYLVAIN LAKE BY MT. RUSHMORE TO GET THE BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS, SO WE WENT UP ABOVE AND I THOUGHT A ROCK PHOTO WOULD BE NICE..IT WAS BEAUTIFUL, BUT NOT LIKE THE LAKE BELOW.

BACK HOME AND WILL WORK ON GETTING PRIZES SENT OUT.

I GIVE PRIZES TO THE ONES THAT ANSWERED THE QUESTION TO THAT PRIZE, TO SUBSTITUE PRIZES WOULD BE TOOOO CONFUSING AND UNFAIR.

I AM SORRY THAT THIS TURNED INTO BE SUCH AN UNPLEASANT EVENT FOR SOME. I TRIED TO MAKE MY RETIREMENT/ANNIVERSARY AS FUN AND HAPPY AS I COULD...PLEASE FORGIVE ME FOR MY ERRORS..

IF I CAN FIND TIME TO POST BEFORE I LEAVE AT 5 AM TOMORROW MORNING I WILL POST,OTHERWISE, I WILL HAVE TO POST WHEN I GET BACK AND GET READY TO SHIP.
