Traveling November 27-30

 We left DeMoine Iowa and headed to Salina Kansas.  Still chilly!


We ate at a little neighborhood bar that looked about the size of our truck. Great food!!



Tuesday we headed to Oklahoma.



Finally reached 60 degrees!

Wednesday we made to Tucumcari on Route 66.  65 degrees and lots of blue sky.  We ate at Del’s Restaurant with the Grinch at the bar.



Thursday morning was a rainy snow mix. Back to being cold!  We headed out to Rehoboth.





Some snowy roads, but not bad.  Beautiful scenery with the snow!!!  Met our friends - Ippels, Arendsens and Beversluis’.  The party begins….

Thanksgiving in Minnesota: November 17-22, 2023

 Kurt and I left for Minnesota, Thursday, November 16. We went halfway and stayed at a Harvest Host - Tumbled Rock. We had been at this brewery another time when we camped at Devil’s Lake.





We arrived in Ham Lake on Friday, November 17. It was great to see the kids and grands again! Danny came home and showed us his pilgrim outfit.  He was ready for Thanksgiving!

We decided to have a “sleepover” in the camper with the boys. PopPop made popcorn and we watch “The Sandlot.”  The boys said they never slept better!  We all slept well!

Danny also informed us how to spell butter…😂


While we were in Minnesota, Henley lost her first tooth and just had to let us know!

Thanksgiving came and Kristen made a perfect turkey dinner! So much to be thankful for!




Friday was a day to make gingerbread houses and decorate the house.





Bekah made hers on Saturday.



We left on a bitterly cold morning for Des Moines Iowa - our first stop on our travels to Rehoboth in New Mexico.  Forgot to take a pic of Beauty in the snow. We stayed warm in the camper, but a few outside valves were frozen.  Traveling to Kansas next for one night. Hopefully it will be warmer!
