Air Force Academy

We drove about 2 hours to the United States Air Force Academy, in Colorado Springs,  and did the self guided tour.  Didn't need a person to explain all, because Craig knew all the numbers and info on all the planes.  He did 8 years in the Air Force,  worked on the planes.  Guess he must have really liked that because he knew when the planes where flying and war events that happened with the planes.  Great day.

Craig is commented to work here tell about August 15th.  Because of my attitude sickness I may not make that date.  We are at 10,000 feet and that is extreme.

Working for our rent

We arrived at the campground of the rockies on May 10th.  Craig has done a lot of work, including getting their golf cart going.  He cleans two shower houses here, 5 days a week.

Today we drove Hwy 82 about 20 miles north of Bunea Vista, Co. Over a mountain pass called Independence.  Just beautiful, the pass only open up yesterday and the snow was still there.  Several people where sking.

Made our way over the top and into Aspen, Co.  Wow!

Snow in May, Gunnison, CO

Monarch Pass is just over 11,000 feet and is between us and our work camping job.  Sooooo we are spending 3 or 4 extra nights here at Gunnison RV resort.  Our phone and Internet connection is not very good.

April 4th we left south Texas.  Stopping in Silver City, New Mexico where we experience a severe dust storm, at the Grand Canyon we had several record setting lows, at Zion National Park we discovered how hard it is to find a RV spot,  in Moab, UT we where out of place because everyone owes a Jeep and we don't and now up in elevation in CO we have learned that you can not second guess Mother Nature.

Monarch Pass, on Hwy 50, was going to be a test for Craig, but now with wet snow roads it will be a mess.  I will drive the car and Craig will only have to deal with the motor home.

We will see.  As Howard said "we will figure it out".

Ibu very sick

Our sweet girl Ibu is 14 years old and is now failing.  We don't expect her to make another day.  But we have her home  and she is not in pain, just soooooo tired.

This posted on the HTML tab not on the Compose tab. I have a lot to re-learn.

Still have company

WE are still in Mission TX.  I am trying to set this computer and printer up.  Would like to get back to blogging, but it seems blogger took something that worked, for me, to something that I can not work.  Problem is posting pictures.  I don't want to blog without pictures.
Let try to post a pic.

I just can not make this work.  Will have to find help.

cleaning bird house

We have company!!  The owners of this property are here.  So I guess when they leave they will no longer own this place. 

Their is a marlen bird house here.  Last spring the sparrows just about took over, sooooo we are cleaning it out.  Amazing how full this thing is.  Craig climbed the ladder and threw all the out.  The Marlins should show up in the couple of months.

I did help.  Not just taking pictures.

can not insert pictures but will post this
