Thanksgiving '06

Thanksgiving with Don, Amanda and Donald and yes as you can see it rained!




And there it is, still! No one has taken the rock.

Not sure who was getting wetter, the rock or us!

Don and Donald aboard the Mayflower! "Gee Dad, she doesn't look four-hundred years old".

Don at the stove in the Safari. One thing we always do well is cook and eat no matter what the weather is doing! I was maning the grill outside!

Here are the happy camper in Vitage Thunder.

Sandi and I having dinner at the Plantation.

It was a wonderful meal! We ended up eating so much, walking the Plantation was great after so much food.

Several days after the storm, the ocean was still roaring, right over our truck!

Almost Holloween in Salem

October 2006 in Connecticut!

The weather was horrible and it took us over five hours to get to Salam, MA.

Sara and Sandi in the Galley making great dips!

Don, Donal & Amanda were with us this year at Winter Island, Salem, MA.

We woke to a wonderful morning right on the bay.

Sara had the Airstream all decorated for our stay.

Inside and out.

Oh ho, there is a new sherif in town!

Officer Donal.

Here we are in downtown Salem.

Taking a quick nap before the long drive home.

Airstream Rally in Vermont

A wonderful early morning in the hills of Southern Vermont.

Here are Sara, Donal and Sandi with our entry in the toaster competition. We won best of show with our vintage 1935 Shu-Man Toaster!

Even Per's cat had a great time at the rally.

Sandi and Sara doing a little shopping at the crafts fair in town.

Here are Sara and Donal with their new friend Emma.

Here is our Airstream all dressed for the rally.

So many great pumpkins for the contest.

And it is now official! Sandi and I will be getting married June 2, 2007 in Wakefield, New Hampshire at an Airstream Rally.

Home

Good morning All-
We arrived home last night at 5:30 PM. We were not able to keep our Blog as well posted as we had wished due to lack of internet connections. Over the next several days we will catch up on the posts.

The Falls

The Yellowstone River.

The Upper Falls.

Sandi at the falls.

The Lower Falls.

Animals of Yellowstone

American Bald Eagle.

Bison on the plains of Yellowstone.

Arrive at Yellowstone

We made it! Yellowstone National Park!

Here we are crossing the gate into the park.

Oh boy, more construction. Up the moutains on dirt roads without guardrails.

Here is our Airstream all settled in at Yellowstone.

Big Horn National Park

After visiting Devils Tower we stopped for lunch.

Found a really great Food and Gifts spot run by the local Crow Indians.

Then up Big Horn which was one switch-back after another that went on forever. Once we reached the top we were at an elevation of 8,347 feet.

What goes up must come down. The curves and the steep grade were one thing, but having to deal with the local herds didn't help either.

And boy does it go down.

At the bottom we found Shell Creek which was pretty cool.

And we are spending the night at Graybull KOA. Graybull got it's name from an albino buffalo which the Indians kept Sacred.

Devils Tower

Devils Tower from the distance as we approach.

Here we are with the Airstream getting to the Natural Monument.

The first National Monument.

No matter how hard we looked we found no Aliens!

A really great gift shop open at 7:00 AM with fresh coffee.
