9-23-2014 Proud Grandparents

We are very proud of this grandson, Tanner. He works hard in school, and it has paid off!

This is Tanner, 9th grader, who was inducted into the National Junior Honor Society  tonight in his home town.

We had an unusual visitor this afternoon.  A 27-year old young man from the country of Poland is traveling the United States.  Bert (or Bart) wanted to interview us about our traveling lifestyle.

He worked for a TV network in Poland similar to CNN.  He convinced them to let him take time to travel through the US, interviewing people in every state, then sending the video interview back to Poland.  He had recently been in Indiana, and we watched videos on his website.  The subject of that video was Notre Dame (University) football, and the Amish people.

Yesterday and today he has talked to various people in the campground.  We were the only ones who travel full-time.  He was very interested in our lifestyle.  

He is traveling in a rental car.  He mostly finds places to stay by going to something similar to "www.rentmysofa dot com".  He is not the only one we have talked to in our travels that has used that resource to find someplace to stay.  He is going to Branson tomorrow, and already has a place to stay--someone's sofa.  

Otherwise, it has been a very quiet day.  We rode the bikes this morning, sat outdoors watching birds and reading.
