I want to show you some pictures of Horseshoe Lakes Thousand Trails. It is a very quiet, spacious place with 11 different small lakes. There were a lot of walking trails through the woods around the lakes. Sydney and Holly found it a nice change from riding around in the jeep in Yellowstone and walking around WalMart parking lots.
One day when I took the garbage to the dumpster I found these 2 guys hiding out.
It seems they jumped in during the night and got stuck...it had been emptied the previous day and the garbage bag level wasn't high enough for them to get back out. John found a tree branch long enough to reach bottom to top and we left the top open. Within a few minutes the 2 scampered across the lawn into the woods.
We spent time with our friend Ray while his wife Millie was back in Mass visiting family and friends. Ray took us to Paris for dinner..... Paris Illinois that is. Once Millie returned, we headed back home. Since we were on the European track we spent our first night back on the road in London.... London Indiana.
Saturday around noon we pulled into the Trout Run dinner parking lot. My friend Helen joined us for lunch at the restaurant. We left the RV there and drove the jeep home. Thanks to our friend Darren Smith the driveway was repaired from the damage that occurred during the wet spring. Although he had also lengthened the RV pad, we decided to wait to park the Rose in the driveway due to the increased traffic on the road from the oil/gas drilling. We decided to bring the RV down to the next road from our home, Susqua Road, and park near the pavilion built by the local fishing group..."The Lip Rippers". She stayed there until Monday evening when the volunteer fire company came and stopped traffic so that John could pull across both lanes and back up into the drive. Our neighbor Dave Seeley choreographed it all. Living in a small community has it's advantages. Here is The Rose in her home.
And yes... I've seen Lukas. Jeremy, Chelsea and Lukas came on Sunday for dinner. We ordered Pizza since I wasn't done cleaning the kitchen yet. I have to wash everything before we can cook. John's son Chris joined us also. But here is a picture of Lukas after Wednesday movie and dinner. Harry Potter and Chinese.
He is such a good baby... smiling and cooing all the time. As for my opening statement...... I bought diapers to have at the house for when Lukas visits. Haven't needed to do that for a very long time and I never thought I would need to do it again. Guess you never know.
