Coldwater

We arrived in Coldwater, Mi. on Saturday sept. 26. Went to Potawatomie campgrounds and got set up. Visited with our friends Ned & Beth Yearling and Ron & Katrina Mosher till around 7:oo then we all went to Butler Motor Speedway to watch my daughter Denim race her car. Butler is a 3/8th mile dirt track. It was very exciting to watch my dare devil daughter race even though her car did not cooperate the whole race. It lost power 1/2 way thru the race. Here is a couple of pics of Denim racing. They didn't come out very well cause it was dark. Sorry.
Spent the day Sunday relaxing and going over to mom & dads for dinner.
On Monday we took the 5ver to mom & dads to repack the wheel bearings and check the breaks. My brother and sister inlaw Greg & Laura Allen came over to visit and of course mom made a big dinner for all of us.
On Tuesday mom & dad came over to visit. While there my aunt Vicci & Denny came over. We all went to Angola, In.to a Mexican restaurant for dinner. Good food and company.
Tomorrow off to Indiana.

A GREAT LIFE WITH GREAT FRIENDS

On Saturday 9/19/09 the Ohio gang had their annual walleye and perch fish fry; while there we were surprised with a going away cake and cards. We have met alot of friends here. hoping we all stay in touch. It's going to be a sad day when we pull out, but a new and exiting adventure is ahead of us. Hope to keep meeting good people and making friends all over the U.S.A.
Thanks to all that surprised us that day.
Here is a few pics of that day.
