Susan retired from education in May 2011 and I retired in December 2011 . We are not full timers but do travel a lot. We enjoy traveling around the country. There are many beautiful places in the USA and we are going to try and see all of them while we can.
We didn"t take any trips this summer as we took an early month long spring trip. Its probably a good thing as we had so much rain. I had to mow almost every 5 days all summer. The grass has slowed down only in the last two weeks . We had one storm which took the top and some limbs out of a big oak tree. I just dragged everything into the pasture and repaired the fence. When it gets cooler I will cut some firewood. Susan and I both had several Dr appointments and Kevin had surgery. School volleyball has started for Mackenna (sophomore} and Ashley (8th grade) starts next week. Peyton (1st grade} and Luke (pre-k) have started school. I went to Mack Creek and mowed the camp, then I moved the trailer in for the season. I have spent a couple of days there clearing a few roads the loggers left debris on. I will start staying a lot more after Labor Day. I sure hope it gets cooler.
