June 3 Blue Mounds State Park WI
Went down to Lake Geneva to look at Symphony Bay a 55 +
Active Community. Well not for us. They had about 7 folks living there now, they
expect to be built out in 10 years. But
no Club House and not one in the works for over 2 years. You can travel to Lake Geneva to a Club House
there that they are going to start building in a year, to sit and watch the
water. Not really an active community again,
I guess up in the Midwest Active Communities mean something totally
different than Florida or Arizona.
So the trip was nice going over and back. We stopped at a Walmart and it was fun to see
new areas. Got back to have left overs
for dinner and try to get my work done.
June 4, Blue Mounds State Park WI
Well it rained today big thunder storm in the morning. Don and I decided to start cleaning the
trailer to try and get the cigarette smoke
out. We sprayed the front with
Vinegar and Water and wiped them down.
Also did some organization and re arranging some of the shelves.
Meigan called to get some advise about Australia and health
insurance, housing and Visa. It is
always nice to talk to her. Then she was
off to do some of her Salamander research.
Don and I continued our cleaning and it brightened up and we had sun for
most of the afternoon.
June 5, Blue Mounds Sate Park.
Well more cleaning today.
WE took apart the couch and sprayed with our vinegar and water. Cleaned everything under etc. Hopefully that
will stop that horrible smoke smell.
Went into town for a few things and we drove around.
I have been trying to upload a video to You Tube of my
catalog tour and after 32 hours it finally finished.
Had to make a Sympathy card for a friend I am sorry I won’t
be there for her family.
Just hanging out on a beautiful night. In the high 70s today. Head into Kayla’s for dinner tomorrow. I can’t wait.

Mounds State Park
Headed into town today for a few tings and we stopped at the
Bakery downtown for lunch it was great I had a great pasty and Don said his
sandwich was great. We had to make some
keys for the trailer and we just wanted to get out. Walked around town and then headed back to
the park. Left early to see Kayla and
use her internet.
It was fun to see Kayla went out for Thai and it was pretty
good. Then went back to her apartment and spent some time there. Headed back to the trailer. I am so proud of Kayla she is such a great
young lady and has grown up so much in the last few years.

Mounds State Park and Madison KOA.
Move day but we don’t have to do this early. So we take our
time it is only about 1 hour to our new KOA site.
Get everything ready and packed and ready to go. So moving out and what happens I get into the
truck and the tire warning goes off.
Flat tire. Yup to good to be true
so the next thing we do is put some air in the tire and try and find a repair
shop. Head into Mt Horeb and Don said
there was a shop just as you go into town I couldn’t find it. So went out to a tire and auto shop other end
of town. SO busy I couldn’t even find a
place to park so head for one I missed in town.
Found that one but he had 25 cars ahead and would not be able to get to
me until Monday, he told me how to get to the coop at the end of town the one I
missed first. SO with directions that is
was in the Best do it building I head back out there. Have no idea where Don is as I haven’t seen
him. Get to the coop and ask if they
could help they said sure went to the tire bay and before I could get out of
the truck the tire was plugged and I was
back on the road. Don texted me so we
met up at the grocery store. I tried to
get his GPS to do the same route as mine but I don’t think it worked. So he was going to follow me. I turned on my map and took off the first
turn came up and I realized that it had changed the course so I turned
around but Don had to take the highway. I waited for him to come off the highway and
then we were off again. It was only 53 miles what could go wrong, we already
had a flat tire, a wrong turn. Well a
few miles down the road we hit a detour.
Yup the google maps tried to tell me which way to go take a u turn, turn
left here etc. So we keep following the
detour and then another detour on the detour.
Then when we were suppose to go back to the original highway we had to
turn the other way as that is where we caught up. I didn’t know if Don knew so I tried to get
in front of him and after we got to the campground Don said he didn’t see me
get in front of him and he thought I got lost. After 1 ½ hours we made it to
the KOA. Best laid plans of mice and
men.
This KOA is a nice KOA
typical KOA right next to each other, smell of sewer but clean
bathrooms, full hook ups and pull through sites and very nice people.
I had a Stampin’ Up! friend come and visit me this
evening. Lori Brausen, her and I was
mentored each other for about a year.
Trying to ge tour business off the ground. I met her in November in Orlando and it was
great to have her visit and we talked for about 2 hours talking about ourselves
and our business. One of the best things
about Stampin’ Up! is having these friends we make and have things in common
with. I really enjoyed this visit.
June 8, 2019 Madison
KOA.
Here are just a few areas.
We then went to Bartaco for lunch a taco bar. Was OK
just not my idea of a Mexican Lunch though they had a great
Margarita. Headed back to the apartment
and I used their internet and we talked and Don and Kayla went looking for
Pokemon. Kayla was coming out to the
trailer for hamburger. So I drove with
her to the campground. I know she is a
good driver but she runs right up to folks before she breaks. So I just closed
my eyes and hung on.
We had a nice dinner and sat around and talked for a few
hours. She has grown up so much. We talked about budgets and how to save money
and how much to use on desired per month.
WE just talked and talked. I wish
this was the lady when she was a teenager someone that could talk to you
instead of yelling. She has grown so
much. I love her so very much.
