Trip Log

July 14, 2012

We continue to get quotes for ceiling and floor work in the game room. One more due in and we can decide a course of action. Been busy stipping paint off the garage door with a heat gun. I prefer a solid wood door rather than the hollow metal, rumbly ones they sell now.

July 9, 2012

We have been searching all over for root beer extract to make some home made root beer like we did when we were younger. We haven't had any luck so today we headed out to Lancaster to try the Amish markets there.

July 5, 2012

We picked up Bailey and Bridget on Monday morning for a couple of days and took them sailing on Monday AM. It was a little too gusty and I was a little rusty so we sailed a few quick laps around the lake, ate lunch and waded a little.

June 28, 2012

Tuesday we all took the train into Philadelphia for a day of touring. We had planned to visit some museums but didn't have time.

June 25, 2012

It continues to be a great visit with Craig and Janet. Today is a recovery day after a very busy three days and to be prepared for a walking museum and epicurean tour of downtown Philadelphia. Yesterday both families came for the day with us.

June 23, 2012

The temperature rose to a steamy 105 on Thursday, perfect for Alesa's brother and his wife Janet's visit from Naples, FL. They flew in on Thursday and, after a bout with bottomless rootbeer floats at Red Robin (Yum!), we stopped by to see Jeff and family before coming home.

June 15, 2012

Miss Ellie graduated from 6th grade yesterday and next year she will attend middle school.

June 10, 2012

Monday will be my 65th birthday so Mike and Jeff decided to take me to the Smithsonian Air & Space museum annex next to DC's Dulles airport.

June 6, 2012

Last night was Ellie and Anni's spring concert. They have become young ladies and did a very nice job. Ellie will be graduating next week then on to middle school next year. We continue to keep busy working around the house and yard.

May 23, 2012

Yesterday rain was forecast so we took a day off from working around the house and rode into the middle of the state to see if it was a place where we might want to live. We stopped by Cabela's to use a Christmas gift card.
