This should explain why we want to settle here. Pix of me and three of my grand kids having a ball at Fudpuckers restaurant. The water fall and the mountain are shots from Yosemite. This explains why we have spent the last four plus years traveling this beautiful country. Our plans are to sell our home on wheels and buy a house near Portland.

Well Jann gave me a kick where the sun don't shine and inspired me to get posting. So here goes -- here is a shot of the Swanee River Bridge -- pretty exciting start isn't it? Well speaking of exciting, how about a shot of me and my girl friend Lori Carrico doing what we do best. Finally, a shot of my real girl friend at one of our many stops. OK, stay tuned over the next few days for pix of Jann's trip to Europe --- that's right, she went to Europe and left me home. My turn is coming up. More later. </div></div></div>Denn O'Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09347018847655885446noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986509.post-1634493940795207642009-03-19T06:07:00.001-07:002009-03-19T06:16:41.406-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifOEtgYqrTvdc5Jy7WQE5lfPO7LKo2i2GofS4BouVKzm0KGQ5azbmjcDLbwQaJk4gWWARQMDyIxwrqKUjkY1QoiYv_fXZXUUlBdBM2whCfJk4CG7HjcWJqKX_4JEDMPZua6uDeHw/s1600-h/DSCF2629.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314885519860719218" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifOEtgYqrTvdc5Jy7WQE5lfPO7LKo2i2GofS4BouVKzm0KGQ5azbmjcDLbwQaJk4gWWARQMDyIxwrqKUjkY1QoiYv_fXZXUUlBdBM2whCfJk4CG7HjcWJqKX_4JEDMPZua6uDeHw/s320/DSCF2629.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV1cGfmRSPg-GSnV36JJM7eOvChLYZm6YObfmFbg2zo_BAp2fF1UcPZPNMWrfDiRQxvLwZgsJLbunl_GLu6m46JGmj-G9u5k7wAtofFAAyVAYuobkl05SYegVDCa8Mp0wqBhiBNg/s1600-h/February+2009+008.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314885511360171170" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV1cGfmRSPg-GSnV36JJM7eOvChLYZm6YObfmFbg2zo_BAp2fF1UcPZPNMWrfDiRQxvLwZgsJLbunl_GLu6m46JGmj-G9u5k7wAtofFAAyVAYuobkl05SYegVDCa8Mp0wqBhiBNg/s320/February+2009+008.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhngM3wRENH4jee9JtfzNpBrz5mQOIEMJ1Exu-CaKQbGV_m_kTQi2hkVsPwjCrBJiKUMDL_MCeRqwk7wgSv0TvYYluB68EnZ18c4ZxVuMPdGrpPtrYJP0Jmjqk5L0wt4D061Ps3XA/s1600-h/February+2009+020.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314885507694314978" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhngM3wRENH4jee9JtfzNpBrz5mQOIEMJ1Exu-CaKQbGV_m_kTQi2hkVsPwjCrBJiKUMDL_MCeRqwk7wgSv0TvYYluB68EnZ18c4ZxVuMPdGrpPtrYJP0Jmjqk5L0wt4D061Ps3XA/s320/February+2009+020.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7yzfafLf9bG0BirS0T8ulLU0iyn9-rwT5vdEUEcVmqlVYaMewYc-5Hc4g9YcFYE0B3kYEA-MpuG6hHbvhNn_EDRiZZXB8H0nRB3Dwd1Rr7PgWbsKS_-d8vdQzU_8kLndNctCPdw/s1600-h/February+2009+021.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314885501296226594" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7yzfafLf9bG0BirS0T8ulLU0iyn9-rwT5vdEUEcVmqlVYaMewYc-5Hc4g9YcFYE0B3kYEA-MpuG6hHbvhNn_EDRiZZXB8H0nRB3Dwd1Rr7PgWbsKS_-d8vdQzU_8kLndNctCPdw/s320/February+2009+021.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Hello again -- here are a few shots of our travels. Ruby has learned how to go for a walk on a leash. The alligator turned up one morning waiting for Ruby to go for her daily walk. She decided to stay in that day. We had a quick snow storm in NC that lasted one day. Snow is beautiful when you know it will be gone in a day or two. Finally, there is a shot of a swamp located on a plantation we visited just outside of Charleston. We are currently making our way through Virginia on our way to NYC. YEA!!! We hope to visit Tim & MJ and their kids along the way. </div></div></div></div>Denn O'Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09347018847655885446noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986509.post-32430529791052373762009-03-15T07:58:00.000-07:002009-03-15T08:06:08.935-07:00<div><br /><br /><div>I don't know if the shot of our park in <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivxhBEWJlm_I2ZJt4nqR0luLyffVW3upADJBWSe2CG6fNCZrwdJDCrahO9ZyFENSGSYd0zMW0jRWZwCwYWDExVrITpAfrUgL5kBM-R1xbvKV_0ZP8ZdcVWkoZKzPoTuafkI3I1kQ/s1600-h/DSC01265.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313430228055094498" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 207px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 309px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivxhBEWJlm_I2ZJt4nqR0luLyffVW3upADJBWSe2CG6fNCZrwdJDCrahO9ZyFENSGSYd0zMW0jRWZwCwYWDExVrITpAfrUgL5kBM-R1xbvKV_0ZP8ZdcVWkoZKzPoTuafkI3I1kQ/s320/DSC01265.JPG" border="0" /></a>Chapel Hill is a repeat, but even if it is, it is worth another look.

That's Jann holding up a tree we found somewhere. The house with the two trees I think was in Savannah (one of our favorite cities) the other house with the front porch is where they filmed Fried Green Tomatoes -- if you haven't seen it your should. Finally is a shot of our latest camp site in NC -- the snow disappeared in two days and the weather is now great. Both cats were afraid of the snow so we did not have to put up with Ruby always teasing to go our. Stay tuned, I am in the mood to share pictures, so I will be adding more soon. </div></div></div></div></div>Denn O'Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09347018847655885446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986509.post-70406741220478400232009-03-04T11:07:00.001-08:002009-03-04T12:01:56.572-08:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2c25EGNrUNUUNeUKdcOQ3F3IRGiIa3PXK8ixT84ermapM0ApoMLm-GX0exEuq7NguM_B72dZAOZwaZhCvTQq5dI0PoLswoREh99ny6a2RZyux1LyfIz-_LbO8HG6_d7l19HIRWw/s1600-h/Us+and+Lori.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309424586705561442" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2c25EGNrUNUUNeUKdcOQ3F3IRGiIa3PXK8ixT84ermapM0ApoMLm-GX0exEuq7NguM_B72dZAOZwaZhCvTQq5dI0PoLswoREh99ny6a2RZyux1LyfIz-_LbO8HG6_d7l19HIRWw/s320/Us+and+Lori.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizQy4nP5lvav3EUqcEYJC67ye-i9tcWZJjSMF1aX-rhbvM-ujl4UPTLliuorOFRS2QCcWDfvKzKGT9qcoT8_K8sZO7s_VJ94HKsnAD3ySiigeYsu1ExeeGBQni_NkNSAJbMTqSZA/s1600-h/House+aqnd+Trees.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309424582101525122" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizQy4nP5lvav3EUqcEYJC67ye-i9tcWZJjSMF1aX-rhbvM-ujl4UPTLliuorOFRS2QCcWDfvKzKGT9qcoT8_K8sZO7s_VJ94HKsnAD3ySiigeYsu1ExeeGBQni_NkNSAJbMTqSZA/s320/House+aqnd+Trees.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia4yXli5YBYQi_g5mRsahW_06e9lw4TpL0nt8eMIb1eVmL5DvV0BJA5RpZX0B5Msmm_sc1p5-3rQnLHhMuw11FRaO0t8cR46Bmf8m8Y0wufcy6vc2OBR__bH9eeYXM0xSIw6hHXA/s1600-h/Our+Home+in+Charelston.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309424571749782626" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia4yXli5YBYQi_g5mRsahW_06e9lw4TpL0nt8eMIb1eVmL5DvV0BJA5RpZX0B5Msmm_sc1p5-3rQnLHhMuw11FRaO0t8cR46Bmf8m8Y0wufcy6vc2OBR__bH9eeYXM0xSIw6hHXA/s320/Our+Home+in+Charelston.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaaYKuPijJlGAGvC818BDmkroXvwEgAoYxMPVtm8Hn0-OI-kj_iukV2KcFOdrIM3K_NfesQlqHsIg4DgEkLOBamUhjl0_YzqyiPoV0LvkuQ0bTJd0lJOPZppFTivdQ6FgNpNpujQ/s1600-h/Charelston+Bridge.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309424563425916146" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaaYKuPijJlGAGvC818BDmkroXvwEgAoYxMPVtm8Hn0-OI-kj_iukV2KcFOdrIM3K_NfesQlqHsIg4DgEkLOBamUhjl0_YzqyiPoV0LvkuQ0bTJd0lJOPZppFTivdQ6FgNpNpujQ/s320/Charelston+Bridge.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdi-MJDMNBXtDUc4Vkcfs1yOmg97GB9JrMDY0F07sf2EmFLwho_EtGrP045wPlp3WR4OLti9O5nJyfoqHBdmW-tYwanWXUa6KWv9kR79cW40aW-YTVW2rj9kxZ0Zp-efHMhrrIUA/s1600-h/Our+Home+in+Charelston.JPG"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj28MfzIXyPeymGiQmFZkmNaijanlKcRnzyeSam83rE2kMtt0ChWbIGF2depYsDUepvZk4emkA3J4TATv6l1KDDillZUN4jJ0mKm6U5xVx4H47Kic72PPoVcwMvM84w3LYTkM3kBw/s1600-h/Hotel+In+Charelston.JPG"></a><br /><div><br />Well, it;s been awhile so we will be making up for our blog neglect by posting more pix over the next couple of weeks.

It was all so beautiful, I has a tough time choosing which prints to attach. Note the name on the Cafe directly behind me. Also, we had lunch in a small village right next to the path of the Tour De France. The other shot is from our room over looking <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Heidelberg</span>. Finally, a shot of the beach in Spain.

Pix of an under ground cavern, Jann at the river, me and my second best gal doing what we do best -- relaxing -- and a picture of our home anchored in Chapel Hill NC. This is by far the most beautiful site we have ever camped at. We are now off to Europe to hook up with our Pals Steve and Pam to tour Southern France and a bit of Germany. Stay tuned for pix of the vacation. </div>Denn O'Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09347018847655885446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986509.post-19713608293890557412008-06-21T05:39:00.000-07:002008-06-21T05:55:53.521-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiI6EZTvUbHsF1rZ9_OD-_1Tr-bYggGPF0T1Kg16jKECHqvG9jLsq52Ud2RYOraQicVnpUN4oyDpawwgswHSo6r5XNhiG01hSswDFfGXuhJXt0eN7rmRI9Ad7I7BlEmzFA9U4wzEA/s1600-h/DSC01088.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214317316685023762" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiI6EZTvUbHsF1rZ9_OD-_1Tr-bYggGPF0T1Kg16jKECHqvG9jLsq52Ud2RYOraQicVnpUN4oyDpawwgswHSo6r5XNhiG01hSswDFfGXuhJXt0eN7rmRI9Ad7I7BlEmzFA9U4wzEA/s320/DSC01088.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC1vrVe9JOY7702Yc849vkxk0VPBXxniHnd9-wXPB-QukvdK-vzS6hPU_MG6jaIrjq26fFz4WNCXPKDa90_u6TPVsF6D7Xwa4tpifZ48l8y5EumFiTzQpbLeOr7tDCc12v7ak1PQ/s1600-h/DSC01119.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214317327476366290" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC1vrVe9JOY7702Yc849vkxk0VPBXxniHnd9-wXPB-QukvdK-vzS6hPU_MG6jaIrjq26fFz4WNCXPKDa90_u6TPVsF6D7Xwa4tpifZ48l8y5EumFiTzQpbLeOr7tDCc12v7ak1PQ/s320/DSC01119.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt6yoZB7vPPybrNV4PL2aBFuugj86mWdcQpOhryFFOoCpYIPedovDcD-WqxoL3Jxhkwj0DEUPR5Mx3nQkZfjCkqI_IVZqMPTwYdexOBK_Q_D03lARI2Pn2K9_C9qF1hNLMo26p1A/s1600-h/DSC01121.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214317330198335298" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt6yoZB7vPPybrNV4PL2aBFuugj86mWdcQpOhryFFOoCpYIPedovDcD-WqxoL3Jxhkwj0DEUPR5Mx3nQkZfjCkqI_IVZqMPTwYdexOBK_Q_D03lARI2Pn2K9_C9qF1hNLMo26p1A/s320/DSC01121.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>There are several great reasons why we are considering making Kentucky our permanent address -- good food, good weather (so far) and great Bourbon.

At first we were very impressed with this area -- the deepest green vistas we have seen since leaving Portland. But then we talked to a few natives and discovered the high temperatures and even higher humidity that is so common here in the summer. So we will not be settling in Arkansas</div><br /><div>Before leaving Texas we ate at Babes Chicken, just outside of Dallas -- twice!!! It is absolutely the best fried chicken you will ever eat in Texas. Side dishes served in separate bowls include mashed potatoes, corn and greens. YUM!!! </div><br /><div>The pictures include shots of Wichita Falls and the red river that feeds the falls. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Jann</span> and a brief visit with an ex-president and the hog statue sits outside of the Farmers Market in Little Rock -- go figure. There is also a picture of a typical Arkansas RV that was converted from a truck. You gotta love Arkansas. </div><div></div><div>As you can see, gas is a lot cheaper in Arkansas and we bought a bar for eldest son Dennis, Jr for his retirement. Now we are on to Tennessee hopefully to meet up with son Kevin for the famous Memphis Barbecue cook off.

We have not had a chance to explore this beautiful place so pictures will follow. Out plan is to take a quick over-night trip to Banf, Canada, stay at the world-famous Fairmont Hotel, visit Lake Louise and return home before the cats get tired of waiting for us and leave home. In the meantime, here are some shots of the wild life we encountered on our travels. Also there are two geysers pictured, can you tell which one is Old Faithful in Yellowstone? Finally, be advised, when traveling in Idaho, cowboys and their cows have the right-of-way!</div>Denn O'Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09347018847655885446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986509.post-30543884457519977502007-10-01T08:33:00.000-07:002007-10-01T09:03:48.521-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdBhURlq9reR9CsBB9QR_i8pvuFZv2oWt7GIGRtMqtM49gfYyRvT4jRyPBAyH_5iWxfZ_jfHgm3nuawDtCg60wijIhCyYXxOVkRQHNU2OUK0hlHIs-TGy5vTeBiYSbR7TCt9Btow/s1600-h/DSC00815.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5116398689961764146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdBhURlq9reR9CsBB9QR_i8pvuFZv2oWt7GIGRtMqtM49gfYyRvT4jRyPBAyH_5iWxfZ_jfHgm3nuawDtCg60wijIhCyYXxOVkRQHNU2OUK0hlHIs-TGy5vTeBiYSbR7TCt9Btow/s320/DSC00815.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKgCa64r4OgAuNhqKNYwcJUk9J0ySQFz5RHZKLYL_Za0EGyuBcJL6ebgVJxIFrTJHXMDtlXuOySwWZ2N8D7zTrdfj_Y58IXaihDLHi9wZTx3Swr_YrTiCZjr5XFXLgbuxDOHbvkA/s1600-h/DSC00847.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5116398694256731458" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKgCa64r4OgAuNhqKNYwcJUk9J0ySQFz5RHZKLYL_Za0EGyuBcJL6ebgVJxIFrTJHXMDtlXuOySwWZ2N8D7zTrdfj_Y58IXaihDLHi9wZTx3Swr_YrTiCZjr5XFXLgbuxDOHbvkA/s320/DSC00847.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgngrm7pGKBhsOT8_L1I-4eYh2seLD6lbKkNPL5iT1Y6mqS4yQwzP1OVHrunFBWN-HO5xAEExFyfCSlCnBhhBceaKi4jeARNFcCnxesG2hiMvRHJlQjcZP1Kok1SYh5RZchw8YqBA/s1600-h/DSCF2004.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5116398702846666066" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgngrm7pGKBhsOT8_L1I-4eYh2seLD6lbKkNPL5iT1Y6mqS4yQwzP1OVHrunFBWN-HO5xAEExFyfCSlCnBhhBceaKi4jeARNFcCnxesG2hiMvRHJlQjcZP1Kok1SYh5RZchw8YqBA/s320/DSCF2004.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic9f5Iltz34UBivQ1Wau32TYSAd3POnfpgVTLHDc2w0S5zq7utkunKSQ18yWMhnobCRJrAGGuZVLIt9eWeV-O_NxC7pKN2rxRRKDJxMvP5iIc0n7zcgxYydBQ0Mym6bIX4105B0A/s1600-h/DSCF2040.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5116398707141633378" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic9f5Iltz34UBivQ1Wau32TYSAd3POnfpgVTLHDc2w0S5zq7utkunKSQ18yWMhnobCRJrAGGuZVLIt9eWeV-O_NxC7pKN2rxRRKDJxMvP5iIc0n7zcgxYydBQ0Mym6bIX4105B0A/s320/DSCF2040.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Hello -- here it is October 1st -- just two more days to Jann's Birthday. Yea! We finally broke away from Anaheim and with stops in Las Vegas, Utah and now Idaho, we are heading to Washington, Eastern OR, Thanksgiving in our beloved Portland, and then on to our winter quarters in Pasa Roblis. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Here are some beautiful shots of our wonderful country. You can see why we are so in love with our "Gypsy" life style. Cliff shot from Moab, Utah, the Niagara of the west (Shoshone Falls, ID) the great organ in the Mormon Tabernacle, and finally, a shot showing a typical parking place for our house. Nice scene to wake up to, isn't it.

Stay tuned for news of our journey though Utah and Idaho. </div>Denn O'Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09347018847655885446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20986509.post-73535469055364283472007-08-22T08:26:00.000-07:002007-08-27T11:42:18.761-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPf7yOcbpUay5qCnP3AVF-LA74EcolfTS9TMaCKOo4KyEdau4uYW-Aygq2KCkrKnG27uQoXkAKnb-Qwoivk5B4XSzXheBFL0ndKXei3MNBf1es9oh4upcfy2dg1iPnMkfIllYytw/s1600-h/DSCF1948.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5101547190194710754" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPf7yOcbpUay5qCnP3AVF-LA74EcolfTS9TMaCKOo4KyEdau4uYW-Aygq2KCkrKnG27uQoXkAKnb-Qwoivk5B4XSzXheBFL0ndKXei3MNBf1es9oh4upcfy2dg1iPnMkfIllYytw/s320/DSCF1948.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgWHAohl3tv6lj2dyn9nFVcnlsRmn8s6vg9XkO1CDE0iU3W3vlbedHpuMuZS4vrQY7UEwd9aOAexmDK0A5-KIQkxuP09w2rqAAGAmX4ROpuzPJ0TStt5iM_p3heB9Vv8jN6KXogQ/s1600-h/DSCF1956.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5101547194489678066" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgWHAohl3tv6lj2dyn9nFVcnlsRmn8s6vg9XkO1CDE0iU3W3vlbedHpuMuZS4vrQY7UEwd9aOAexmDK0A5-KIQkxuP09w2rqAAGAmX4ROpuzPJ0TStt5iM_p3heB9Vv8jN6KXogQ/s320/DSCF1956.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>Here are a couple of shots of Larry's family.
