Family visits

Well, we are still in Texas having a grand time.  Soooooo, busy, lots todoin the park. Nice to have friends (neighbors) to visit with.

Craig and I are wrapped up in trying to get a retirement income.  He is now 60 so we can work on income investment dollars.  But moving things from a 401k to an IRA has proved to be a Hugh headache.  We are told that when you leave your job and 401k to move the dollars then.  Lose the bureaucratic of the company.  I don't know what that means but nothing is simple.

Our biggest money-eater-upper has been Medical expense.  Craig's medical. But now the VA has decided to care for him.  We had no idea when he walked out of his work, 3 years ago, that he had VA benefits that would become this important.  If you are a veteran please investigate what you may have earned.

Craig's brother and wife came to visit, what a nice time.  Maybe they will escape the cold of South Dakota and winter down here when they stop working.  Craig's uncle and aunt have winter here for the pass 22 years, they are the reason we can to the valley in the first place.

Uncle Dean, Ann, Chuck, Cyndy and I enjoyeda great dinner.  Craig made a roast.


I think Chuck and Uncle Dean look a lot alike.  They even have the same mannerism.


Dean enjoys grapefruit, so he and Chuck picked grapefruit from our tree.

Not sure what our summer trip will be.  Remember last summer we where in the mountains of Colorado.

Would have pictures today if the blogger program would work!!!!!
