SWEDEN AND NORWAY HERE I COME!


This is a test so I can see if I remember how to post to the blog <G> and to give all who read it an opportunity to familiarize themselves with how to get to the blog.

To recap a little, I am currently at my Mother’s in Hurley, SD (southeastern SD).  I spent the winter in Yuma, AZ before beginning my trip north in mid-March.  I enjoyed visiting friends and family along the way before landing in the SD Black Hills for about 6 weeks in May/June—and again visited with friends and family there.  I was joined by Richard and Essie McCloskey the last week and we did a whirlwind tour of the Hills’ 
ESSIE AND RICHARD MCCLOSKEY WITH CAROL
highlights to the tune of 10-12 hours a day.  We then caravanned to Hurley where they spent a couple of days before journeying on east.  As I write this (July 15th) my days are filled with trip preparations, doing jobs for Mom, etc.  This week I will attend Winnebago’s Grand National Rally Mon. and Tues. in Forest City, IA and a family reunion at the end of the week in Yankton, SD before climbing on a plane out of Sioux Falls on Sunday, July 22.  It is a very busy time but a time filled with anticipation of coming events!  Stay tuned…
