Sandie & Jim Posted May 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Had a great lunch visit with Jeff and Tina. So happy they could fit us into their busy busy family schedule. And Jeff - the rain was really appreciated by us. Less than a week and we will finally get to move our pin. But I'm not excited or anything.

heyduke Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 We'll be here for another month or so, so come on down there's always room at the fairgrounds. Maybe not full hook ups, but a number of 30A & water and 50A & water. There is one broken site (electric doesn't work), that can be used for dumping so no problem there. Looks like we might be there for Memorial Day weekend... will there be anything available there for that time frame? Quote entered the RV fulltime class of 2011 - March!

steved44 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Hard to say as they don't take reservations, however there are a few elec & water spaces open right now. They have one space on our row that the electric is bad on, so no-one parks there. That makes for a good place to dump as it does have a sewer. It's a big lot, so there is plenty of space to park. Mary Jane & Tom are here visiting right now and they have a 30A spot in the middle. MJ & Tom came in yesterday and we had a nice visit last night. We are taking them to the OKC bombing memorial today in a few minutes. Great to see them again, and we had fun trying to remember where we had been in the country!! Memory is not what it used to be!!

That makes it nice, you can go there again and be excited again. I can have as much fun as I had yesterday never getting bored. I may have to make a fast trip to Rapid city to get my drivers license renewed. I got a letter saying I could do it on the net but it is confusing. Monday we will call and check it out. If I have to go there one of my cowgirls said she will drive me up there. I am not going to my Nieces place in Charleston. I told them I am not leaving and they are on thier way home. I am staying here in Deming till I croak. I'm not giving them the Navion. I have signed the Hornet over to the Low Hi RV Ranch but have been told to continue using it as long as I wish.

So, I'm guessing you're feeling much better if you're not going to Charleston. I'm glad to hear that. Hopefully, you'll get a lot more use out of the Navion. Sometimes it's nice to be able to re-think our decisions. We do that all the time. Chalk comes in handy. Let us know if you need us for anything and we'll be there to help if we can.

rmcf308 Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Lee- Charleston isn't capable of containing you for long. At least in Deming the cowgirls are used to putting up with a grouchy old man!!!! When we get in your area we will stop and visit. You checking out Mars tonight?

My Niese and Nephew were driving me crazy ignoring what I was telling them we had to do to get the vehicles transferred before the 20th so I wouldn't be in trouble with SD. Every time I would say we had to do this or that or recomend we do something the reply with we are going to do what they wanted to do. So I told them I wasn't going with them and wasn't going to give them the Navion or Chevy. Now they are being very nice so I won't make up a new Will. It had disturbed me so much my Seizures had started again and my blood pressure had got out of control. I've got the BP back in order again and the Seazures are inproving but I must keep from getting disturbed. With my friend Barb driving I should be able to stay calm on the road up to Rapid City and back.

Wanderin Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 No it is just the opposite. Ouch! I'm sorry to hear that. Getting upset is no good for you or for anyone else. Hopefully, you'll be able to have peace just being away from them for awhile. Maybe time will heal when you have some space. Anyway you look at it though, they probably did you a favor. Now you can do what you want when you want and put that decision off until you have to make it. Enjoy yourselves on the trip ! Take your time and avoid the stress.

palamine Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 "we had fun trying to remember where we had been in the country!! Memory is not what it used to be!! Got to run..... Steve" And that is why I do a blog. Because I really and truly cannot remember where I was even a month ago. Sure am looking forward to moving out on Wednesday. We are of the same mind . Doug keeps a day by day diary. He takes one picture everydayfor the diary and makes a comment about what we did on that day. He has been doing that for 8 years now. Often we sit down and review 1 year ago, 5 years ago. When he started it 8 years ago I never thought he would keep it up, but he has. Here in the park the diary proves invaluable because he can look back and tell what was happening in the park 5 years ago. We know what to expect by way of weather, number of campers in the park etc. Love it.

You are still able to make your own decisions. Also you give us a good reason to stop in Deming. Have a safe and stress free trip to Rapid City if you have to go. Be safe everyone.

Why would they think you didn't know what needed to be done? I'm glad you are kicking them out and going with Barb if she can't help you figure out the online stuff today. Calm is important and people who interfere with that need to just go home.

Lavinmh Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 We are also so happy for you Lee. Sounds like, with the help of the group there in Deming, you are in good hands. Always better to make your own decisions. Sorry your niece turned out like that. We are doing well in Virginia. Our granddaughter in graduating from elementary school in June. My brother is coming over from Germany in July. Lots of things going on. May try to make a trip to Niagara Falls in August. I've been there but Ed never has. Also thinking of taking Savannah up to Mt Vernon. That would be a day trip. Everyone stay safe and away from those trucks!!

Sandie & Jim Posted May 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Lee - sure hope you're having a great trip to South Dakota and that you are just relaxin' and enjoyin'.

IYQ Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Good news for Jim. I love when every one gets that kind of news. I got up here by noon on the third day and got my new drivers license taken care of. Barb wants to use one more day and go to Deadwood then stop and see a mutual friend in Denver on the way back before she has to report to work at the Lo-Hi RV Ranch. We are doing great so I'm happy.
