home at last

well we had a great time at lake tahoe. it was clear and cool everyday we were there. we slept on a twin bed that bent in the center so naturally we rolled to the center. we had a wonderful time with speed and becky and the kids.

we got to take a tour of lake tahoe by a paddle wheeler boat. it was neat to go and see the lake. speed and becky paid for this tour. we ended the day by having dinner in one of the casino's. we took a haunted tour of frank sinatra's old casino. what a laugh. our three gkids had a great time and did fairly well on the ride there and to home. 11hours in a car and they did good.

tahoe has no snow, none nada zip none ..... not 1 flake the 5 days we were there. oregon is going to get snow this week again. i saw where texas is getting snow, but not tahoe. we traveled all the way home yesterday and i am glad to be home. it's nice to visit family but its nice to be home as well.

well sgt.ty lamb has headed for the sand box again. this time for 15 months. mark is close to ending his 15 months. when will this war ever end. i would like to do stuff with my kids but we are all soldiers, except for ben... i think he's the smart one of the bunch. i know that darci won't let me enlist. she'd kill me if i tried to talk to ben about joining. lol //////

as the song sings we are all enlisted till the conflict's over. i didn't know that the song had dual meanings. well i hope that all is well in your homes and that you gain 10 pounds this thanks giving. i know i did.... keep your powder dry and your bullets handy cause we are going into an election year. love you all, pop
